Instead of having a GCC specific routine to perform self-relocation
based on ELF metadata, use the PE/COFF metadata and the existing
PeCoff library routines. This reduces the amount of bespoke assembler
code that is a burden to maintain, and is not portable across the set
of toolchains we support.
This does require some special care, as we have no control over how
the C code references global symbols, so we need to emit these
references from the calling assembler code. Otherwise, they may be
emitted as absolute references, in which case they need to be fixed
up themselves, leading to a circular dependency.

ArmPlatformStackLib has hooks into primary/secondary core PCDs and
other ArmPlatformLib related junk, so let's simply set the stack
pointer directly. This is trivial given that our PrePi is unicore
only.

ArmVirtQemuKernel and ArmVirtXen use essentially the same code to
retrieve DRAM information from the DT /memory node at early boot,
and invoke it via the ArmPlatformPeiBootAction () hook exposed by
ArmPlatformLib. Let's move this code into the PrePi implementation
these platforms share between them (and not with any other platforms)
so we can eliminate another dependency on the messy ArmPlatformLib.

QEMU and KVM based ARM/AARCH64 virtual machines only enter UEFI on
a single core, so ArmPlatformIsPrimaryCore() always returns true.
And even if it didn't, our code does absolutely nothing meaningful
based on its return value, so don't bother calling it, and remove
another frivolous dependency on ArmPlatformLib.

Recording the top of SEC visible system memory in a global variable is
not necessary, and violates the constraints of the SEC/PEI environment,
given that it may execute from NOR flash. So remove it.

This updates all assembly source files under ArmVirtPkg to mark
exported functions as ASM_FUNC(), which puts them in a separate
section, allowing the linker to prune code that is left unused.
At the same time, clean up the code to get rid of LoadConstantToReg()
instances involving symbol references, each of which emits an absolute
literal, and hence and entry in the PE/COFF .reloc table.

The ArmVirtPkg platforms that use PrePi have no notion of boot remapped
aliases, so we can simply jump to CEntryPoint() directly rather than
via an absolute reference.

Both the ARM and the AARCH64 versions of the PrePi code (shared between
ArmVirtQemuKernel and ArmVirtXen) 'preserve' values across a function
call using registers that are not in fact callee saved. So fix that.

This adds support to the self relocating PrePi instance that is built
as a PIE ET_DYN executable. It primarily involves porting the relocation
routine to use ELF32 REL entries instead of ELF64 RELA entries which is
what AArch64 uses.
