arch/arm64: Add EL1/EL2/EL3 support for arm64

Currently, arch/arm64 requires coreboot to run on EL3 due
to EL3 register access. This might be an issue when, for example,
one boots into TF-A first and drops into EL2 for coreboot afterwards.

This patch aims at making arch/arm64 more versatile by removing the
current EL3 constraint and allowing arm64 coreboot to run on EL1,
EL2 and EL3.

The strategy here, is to add a Kconfig option (ARM64_CURRENT_EL) which
lets us specify coreboot's EL upon entry. Based on that, we access the
appropriate ELx registers. So, for example, when running coreboot on
EL1, we would not access vbar_el3 or vbar_el2 but instead vbar_el1.
This way, we don't generate faults when accessing higher-EL registers.

Currently only tested on the qemu-aarch64 target. Exceptions were
tested by enabling FATAL_ASSERTS.
