The generic timer support libraries call the actual system register
accessor function via a single pair of functions ArmArchTimerReadReg()
and ArmArchTimerWriteReg(), which take an enum argument to identify
the register, and return output values by pointer reference.
Since these functions are never called with a non-immediate argument,
we can simply replace each invocation with the underlying system register
accessor instead. This is mostly functionally equivalent, with the
exception of the bounds check for the enum (which is pointless given the
fact that we never pass a variable), the check for the presence of the
architected timer (which only makes sense for ARMv7, but is highly unlikely
to vary between platforms that are similar enough to run the same firmware
image), and a check for enum values that refer to the HYP view of the timer,
which we never referred to anywhere in the code in the first place.
So get rid of the middle man, and update the ArmGenericTimerPhyCounterLib
and ArmGenericTimerVirtCounterLib implementations to call the system
register accessors directly.

For historical reasons, the files under ArmLib are split up into 'common'
files under Common/, containing common C files as well as AArch64 and Arm
specific asm files, and ArmV7 and AArch64 files under ArmV7/ and AArch64/,
respectively. This presumably dates back to the time when ArmLib supported
different revisions of the 32-bit architecture (i.e., pre-V7)
Since the PI spec requires V7 or later, we can simplify this to Arm/ and
AArch64, which aligns ArmLib with the majority of other modules that carry
ARM or AArch64 specific code.
So move the files around so that shared files live at the same level as
ArmBaseLib.inf, and ARM/AArch64 specific files live in Arm/ or AArch64/,
respectively.
