tashaboot: arm64 bootloader

A small arm64 bootloader. No board code, no device tree porting, the
architecture manual is the whole story: exception vectors in the
fixed 16 slot layout (Table D1-7), ESR_ELx decoded by exception class
(D1-2172), EL entry and eret chains per the programmers model
(D1-2146), cache maintenance by set/way over the CLIDR_EL1 levels,
semihosting for console and file io per DUI 0203, and the A64 boot
protocol from Documentation/arch/arm64/booting.rst.

The loader boots a stock mainline Image end to end on the qemu virt
machine. Boot receipt with 7.3-rc3 (42MB Image):

  ---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs ]---

The panic is the expected end state, no root filesystem is handed
over yet.

The boot chain, state per stage, start to payload:

|           |     |              | masked, br to image entry       |
+-----------+-----+--------------+----------------------------------+

Two handoff bugs the kernel caught, both AAPCS clobbers in the final
jump. Cache maintenance was called after the register setup, x0-x18
are caller saved, so tb_flush_dcache_all() wiped the dtb pointer and
the kernel spun in setup_machine_fdt() with an invalid device tree
blob. The flush helpers also clobbered x1 (u-boot's void call
convention left mov x1, x0 in cache.S) which handed the kernel a wild
x0. The arguments ride in x20/x21 across the cache calls now, callee
saved, and the register setup is the last thing before the branch.

What is missing on purpose: no SMP bringup (secondary cores park),
no PSCI, no initrd or root filesystem handoff, single serial
console. Those come next.
