5f90f189a0 firmware: arm_scmi: Add optee transport
Add a new transport channel to the SCMI firmware interface driver for
SCMI message exchange based on optee transport channel. The optee
transport is realized by connecting and invoking OP-TEE SCMI service
interface PTA.

Optee transport support (CONFIG_ARM_SCMI_TRANSPORT_OPTEE) is default
enabled when optee driver (CONFIG_OPTEE) is enabled. Effective optee
transport is setup upon OP-TEE SCMI service discovery at optee
device initialization. For this SCMI UUID is registered to the optee
bus for probing. This is done from the link_supplier operator of the
SCMI optee transport.

The optee transport can use a statically defined shared memory in
which case SCMI device tree node defines it using an "arm,scmi-shmem"
compatible phandle through property shmem. Alternatively, optee transport
allocates the shared memory buffer from the optee driver when no shmem
property is defined.

The protocol used to exchange SCMI message over that shared memory is
negotiated between optee transport driver and the OP-TEE service through
capabilities exchange.

OP-TEE SCMI service is integrated in OP-TEE since its release tag 3.13.0.
The service interface is published in [1].
