The User Guide document has grown organically over time and
now covers a wide range of topics, making it difficult to
skim read and extract information from. Currently, it covers
these topics and maybe a couple more:
- Requirements (hardware, tools, libs)
- Checking out the repo
- Basic build instructions
- A comprehensive list of build flags
- FIP packaging
- Building specifically for Juno
- Firmware update images
- EL3 payloads
- Preloaded BL33 boot flow
- Running on FVPs
- Running on Juno
I have separated these out into a few groups that become new
documents. Broadly speaking, build instructions for the tools,
for TF-A generally, and for specific scenarios are separated.
Content relating to specific platforms (Juno and the FVPs are
Arm-specific platforms, essentially) has been moved into the
documentation that is specific to those platforms, under
docs/plat/arm.

The features of the previously existing gentbl, genvar and genwrappers
scripts were reimplemented in the romlib_generator.py Python script.
This resulted in more readable and maintainable code and the script
introduces additional features that help dependency handling in
makefiles. The assembly templates were separated from the script logic
and were collected in the 'templates' directory.
The targets and their dependencies were reorganized in the makefile and
the dependency handling of included index files is possible now.
Incremental build is available in case of modifying the index files.

Several code blocks do not specify a language for syntax
highlighting. This results in Sphinx using a default highlighter
which is Python.
This patch adds the correct language to each code block that doesn't
already specify it.

These are no longer needed as there will always be a table of contents
rendered to the left of every page.
Some of these lists can be quite long and, when opening a page, the
reader sees nothing but a huge list of contents! After this patch,
the document contents are front-and-centre and the contents are
nicely rendered in the sidebar without duplication.

Required work to make all documents sit at the correct levels within
the document tree and any derived content like the table of contents
and the categories in the sidebar.

This change creates the following directories under docs/
in order to provide a grouping for the content:
- components
- design
- getting_started
- perf
- process
In each of these directories an index.rst file is created
and this serves as an index / landing page for each of the
groups when the pages are compiled. Proper layout of the
top-level table of contents relies on this directory/index
structure.
Without this patch it is possible to build the documents
correctly with Sphinx but the output looks messy because
there is no overall hierarchy.

Fixed the below bugs:
1) Bug related to build flag V=1: if the flag was V=0, building with
ROMLIB would fail.
2) Due to a syntax bug in genwrappers.sh, index file entries marked as
"patch" or "reserved" were ignored.
3) Added a prepending hash to constants that genwrappers is generating.
4) Due to broken dependencies, currently the inclusion functionality is
intentionally not utilised. This is why the contents of romlib/jmptbl.i
have been copied to platform specific jmptbl.i files. As a result of the
broken dependencies, when changing the index files, e.g. patching
functions, a clean build is always required. This is a known issue that
will be fixed in the future.
