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.
