Boyan Karatotev a873d26f2b fix(bl1): use per-world context correctly
Currently, the configuration with BL1 and BL2 at SEL1 will transition
via el3_exit which will restore per-world context. However, that context
is never written to and so zeroes end up in registers, which is not
necessarily correct.

This patch gets BL1 to call cm_manage_extensions_per_world() whenever
BL2 runs in a lower EL. This allows the per-world registers to have the
reset values we intend. An accompanying call to
cm_manage_extensions_el3() is also added for completeness.

Doing this shows a small deficiency in cptr_el3 - bits TFP and TCPAC
change a lot. This patch makes them consistent by always setting TCPAC
and TFP to 0 which unconditionally enable access to CPTR_EL2 and FPCR by
default as they are always accessible. Other places that manipulate the
TFP bit are removed.

A nice side effect of all of this is that we're now in a position to
enable and use any architectural extension in BL2.
