Previsouly the synchronization of MpCore was using the SGI (Software
Generated Interrupt) to synchronize MpCore during the early boot.
This commit replaced this mechanism by the more appropriate SEV/WFE
instructions (Send/Wait Event instructions).
That also eases the port to a new cpu/platform.

Every CPUs have their own initialization requirements.
This library allows to allows to abstract these initialization requirements
into the ARM Platform common components.

In the previous version, every cores had the same stack size.
To avoid to waste memory with secondary core stacks, the primary core stack
size is now different from the secondary cores stack size.
These are the Stack PCDs and their default values:
gArmPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCPUCoresSecStackBase|0
gArmPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCPUCoreSecPrimaryStackSize|0x10000
gArmPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCPUCoreSecSecondaryStackSize|0x1000
gArmPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCPUCoresSecMonStackBase|0
gArmPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCPUCoreSecMonStackSize|0x1000
gArmPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCPUCoresStackBase|0
gArmPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCPUCorePrimaryStackSize|0x10000
gArmPlatformTokenSpaceGuid.PcdCPUCoreSecondaryStackSize|0x1000

On MpCore system, the primary core can now be any core of the system.
To identify the primary core, you can use 'gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdArmPrimaryCoreMask'
and 'gArmTokenSpaceGuid.PcdArmPrimaryCore'.
These PCDs by default use the ClusterId and CoreId to identify the core. And the
primary core is defined as the ClusetrId=0 and CoreId=0.
The helper macros are: IS_PRIMARY_CORE(MpId), GET_CORE_ID(MpId), GET_CLUSTER_ID(MpId),
GET_CORE_POS(MpId), PRIMARY_CORE_ID.
