Now that we dropped all ArmPlatformGlobalVariableLib dependencies,
there is no longer a need to allocate and clear out the global
variable region in the PrePeiCore init code. So remove it.

The PrePeiCore vector table for AArch64 mode is only half populated.
However unlikely, if exceptions from lower exception levels are ever
taken, they should be reported correctly, rather than causing a
recursive undefined instruction fault on the zero padding that was
introduced by commit SVN r18904 ("ArmPkg/ArmPlatformPkg: position
vectors relative to base"). So add the missing entries, and wire
them up to the default handler.

We currently rely on .align directives to ensure that each exception
vector entry is the appropriate offset from the vector base address.
This is slightly fragile, as were an entry to become too large (greater
than 32 A64 instructions), all following entries would be silently
shifted until they meet the next alignment boundary. Thus we might
execute the wrong code in response to an exception.
To prevent this, introduce a new macro, VECTOR_ENTRY, that uses .org
directives to position each entry at the precise required offset from
the base of a vector. A vector entry which is too large will trigger a
build failure rather than a runtime failure which is difficult to debug.
For consistency, the base and end of each vector is similarly annotated,
with VECTOR_BASE and VECTOR_END, which provide the necessary alignment
and symbol exports. The now redundant directives and labels are removed.

This ensures the .type directive is used to mark them as function symbols

Several assembler macros use a loop at the label "dead" to trap an error.
This is difficult to debug as there is no indication of how one arrived at the loop.
This change replaces dead with distinct loops locally in the macro,
which means the cause of the hang is detectable to the debugger.
