a0971ec7ec configs/qemu_arm_vexpress_tz: Armv7-A emulation with TrustZone services
This change introduces a Qemu board for an Armv7-A target executing
with OP-TEE secure world services. The target Linux based normal world
embeds the standard minimal filesystem with OP-TEE non-secure components
embedded files from OP-TEE test, examples and benchmark packages.

qemu_arm_vexpress_tz_defconfig differs from qemu_arm_vexpress_defconfig.
Supporting both secure and non-secure worlds on the Arm target mandates
a secure world, here OP-TEE OS, and a bootloader to boot both worlds,
here TF-A (boot/arm-trusted-firmware). Here non-secure Linux kernel is
booted through U-boot

  TF-A bootloader (BL1/BL2) => OP-TEE (BL32) => U-boot (BL33).
  | Executes as secure         | Secure         | Execs as Non-secure
  | Loads BL32/BL33 in RAM     | Jumps to BL33  | Always booted after
  | Jumps to BL32 once done    | as Non-secure  | secure world inits

Vexpress and vexpress-tz defconfigs also differs in that Qemu emulates
a Cortex-A9 in the former and a Cortex-A15 in the later. Cortex-A15
is the Armv7-A CPU used in upstream TF-A and OP-TEE OS packages hence
selected here.

Defconfig adds a fragment to the Linux kernel native configuration to
enable OP-TEE driver support.

Defconfig adds a fragment to the U-Boot native configuration set boot
command, enable semihosting and remove U-Boot persistent environment
storage support.

The defconfig also enables build of the Qemu emulator in case the
system installed Qemu does not yet support CPU TrustZone secure state.

[Arnout, with the help of Peter: correct spelling mistakes in readme,
 fix U-Boot version to 2019.01, download tarball of TF-A instead of git]
