There is currently a regression when using newer ARM64 compilers
for semihosting: the way long types are inferred from context
is no longer the same.
The semihosting runtime uses long and size_t, so use this
explicitly in the semihosting code and interface, and voila:
the code now works again.
Tested with aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc: Linaro GCC 4.9-2014.09.

The semihosting code exposes internal file handle handling
functions to read(), open(), close() and get the length of
a certain file handle.
However the code using it is only interested in either
reading and entire named file into memory or getting the
file length of a file referred by name. No file handles
are used.
Thus make the file handle code internal to this file by
removing these functions from the semihosting header file
and staticize them.
This gives us some freedom to rearrange the semihosting
code without affecting the external interface.

The armv8 ARM Trusted Firmware (ATF) can be used to load various ATF
images and u-boot, and does this for virtual platforms by using
semihosting. This commit extends this idea by allowing u-boot to also
use semihosting to load the kernel/ramdisk/dtb. This eliminates the need
for a bootwrapper and produces a more realistic boot sequence with
virtual models.
Though the semihosting code is quite generic, support for armv7 in
fastmodel is less useful due to the wide range of available silicon
and the lack of a free armv7 fastmodel, so this change contains an
untested armv7 placeholder for the service trap opcode.
Please refer to doc/README.semihosting for a more detailed description
of semihosting and how it is used with the armv8 virtual platforms.
