Allow placing a Linux kernel image header at the start of the U-Boot
binary. This is useful since the image header reports the amount of memory
(BSS and similar) that U-Boot needs to use, but that isn't part of the
binary size. This can be used by the code that loads U-Boot into memory to
determine where to load U-Boot, based on other users of memory.

This patch adds secure_text, secure_data and secure_stack sections for ARMv8 to
hold PSCI text and data, and it is based on the legacy implementation of ARMv7.
ARMV8_SECURE_BASE defines the address for PSCI secure sections, ARMV8_PSCI and
ARMV8_PSCI_NR_CPUS are firstly used in this patch, so they are introduce here
in Kconfig too.

After booting has finished, EFI allows firmware to still interact with the OS
using the "runtime services". These callbacks live in a separate address space,
since they are available long after U-Boot has been overwritten by the OS.
This patch adds enough framework for arbitrary code inside of U-Boot to become
a runtime service with the right section attributes set. For now, we don't make
use of it yet though.
We could maybe in the future map U-boot environment variables to EFI variables
here.
