A new file ea_delegate.S is introduced, and all EA-related functions are
moved into it. This makes runtime_exceptions.S less crowded and reads
better.

No functional changes.

RAS handling flows might involve using setjmp/longjump calls introduced
in earlier patches; therefore, it'd be good to make sure the stack has
been unwound completely after the handling.

This patch inserts ASM assertions on the RAS handling path to validate
stack.

Uncontainable errors are the most severe form of errors, which typically
mean that the system state can't be trusted any more. This further means
that normal error recovery process can't be followed, and an orderly
shutdown of the system is often desirable.

This patch allows for the platform to define a handler for Uncontainable
errors received. Due to the nature of Uncontainable error, the handler
is expected to initiate an orderly shutdown of the system, and therefore
is not expected to return. A default implementation is added which falls
back to platform unhandled exception.

Also fix ras_arch.h header guards.

Double fault is when the PE receives another error whilst one is being
handled. To detect double fault condition, a per-CPU flag is introduced
to track the status of error handling. The flag is checked/modified
while temporarily masking external aborts on the PE.

This patch routes double faults to a separate platform-defined handler.

External Aborts while executing in EL3 is fatal in nature. This patch
allows for the platform to define a handler for External Aborts received
while executing in EL3. A default implementation is added which falls
back to platform unhandled exception.
