The VRAM of the PL111 on the FVP Base/Foundation models is described as
device memory rather than uncached memory, which is not an accurate
description of the nature of the region (i.e., a framebuffer), and may
result in problems when using accelerated string routines to access the
region, since this may legally involve unaligned accesses or DC ZVA
instructions, which are not allowed on device mappings.
So split of the 8 MB VRAM region into a separate region, and map it using
memory attributes.

The number of memory map entries used exceeded the allocated count,
thereby causing memory corruption.
Fixed the number of Virtual Memory Map Descriptors allocated in
describing the RTSM Memory Map. Also added an assert to confirm
that the descriptor count has not been exceeded, in the hope that it may
help highlight the problem should a new entry be added.

This change is purely cosmetic, with no functional impact, and only
exists to isolate cosmetic changes from a functional fix.
Some indentation is adjusted.
Overlength lines are re-flowed.
alignment on = is adjusted as some lines exceeded 80 columns.
if statement converted to conditional assignment.
Redundant re-calculation of CacheAttributes removed.

On ARM systems, mapping normal memory as device memory may have unintended
side effects, given that unaligned accesses or loads and stores with special
semantics (e.g., load/store exclusive) may fault or may not work as expected.
Similarly, DC ZVA instructions are only supported on normal memory, not
device memory.
So remove the EFI_MEMORY_UC attribute that we set by default on system RAM.
If any region requires this attribute, it is up to the driver to set this
attribute, and to ensure that no offending operations are performed on it.

Some users of this library (i.e., FVP-AArch64 and RTSM-A15_MPCore)
may be built to execute straight from NOR flash. Since device mappings
should have the XN attribute set (according to the architecture), mapping
the NOR flash as a device may prevent it from being executable.
Since the NOR flash DXE driver is perfectly capable of setting the correct
attributes for the region it needs to write to, and since we will be
executing from DRAM by that time anyway, we can simply map the NOR flash
as normal memory initially.

This change does not make possible to disable Trustzone from the firmware.
The firmware has to be built for Trustzone support enabled or disabled.
The memory page table are now defined as 'Normal Memory' in any case.
Except for RTSM Device Memory which as to be Secure Device Memory due
to a RTSM bug.
