ARM: Add an empty secure stack section


Until now we've been using memory beyond psci_text_end as stack space
for the secure monitor or PSCI implementation, even if space was not
allocated for it.

This was partially fixed in ("ARM: allocate extra space for PSCI stack
in secure section during link phase"). However, calculating stack space
from psci_text_end in one place, while allocating the space in another
is error prone.

This patch adds a separate empty secure stack section, with space for
CONFIG_ARMV7_PSCI_NR_CPUS stacks, each 1 KB. There's also
__secure_stack_start and __secure_stack_end symbols. The linker script
handles calculating the correct VMAs for the stack section. For
platforms that relocate/copy the secure monitor before using it, the
space is not allocated in the executable, saving space.

For platforms that do not define CONFIG_ARMV7_PSCI_NR_CPUS, a whole page
of stack space for 4 CPUs is allocated, matching the previous behavior.
