mem_protect: Add mem_protect support in Juno and FVP for DRAM1
mem_protect needs some kind of non-volatile memory because it has
to remember its state across reset and power down events.
The most suitable electronic part for this feature is a NVRAM
which should be only accesible from the secure world. Juno and
FVP lack such hardware and for this reason the MEM_PROTECT
functionality is implemented with Flash EEPROM memory on both
boards, even though this memory is accesible from the non-secure
world. This is done only to show a full implementation of
these PSCI features, but an actual system shouldn't use a
non-secure NVRAM to implement it.

The EL3 runtime software will write the mem_protect flag and BL2
will read and clear the memory ranges if enabled. It is done in
BL2 because it reduces the time that TF needs access to the full
non-secure memory.

The memory layout of both boards is defined using macros which
take different values in Juno and FVP platforms. Generic platform
helpers are added that use the platform specific macros to generate
a mem_region_t that is valid for the platform.
