Add generic AES functions that should be able to support all the modes
of operation of the hardware AES crypto engine, i.e. ECB, CBC, CTR,
CBC-MAC, GCM, and CCM.
This makes it possible to easily implement these modes of operation
without duplicating code.

According to the Procedure Call Standard for the ARM Architecture
(AAPCS) - ABI r2.09 [1], §5.2.1.2, the stack pointer must be
double-word-aligned at a public interface. The stack implementation
being full-descending, this requires that the top of stack be
double-word-aligned too.

Coffee is placed by default at the beginning of the flash memory, right
before the firmware. This avoids the memory gaps that there could be
before and after Coffee if it were placed after the firmware, because it
is unlikely that the end of the firmware is aligned with a flash page
boundary, and the CCA is not flash-page-aligned. Thanks to that, Coffee
is also always in the same flash area if its size remains unchanged,
even if the firmware changes, which makes it possible to keep the Coffee
files when reprogramming the firmware after a partial flash erase
command.
The default configuration of Coffee is set to use sensible values for a
typical usage on this SoC, i.e. for sensor data logging.
The default size of Coffee is set to 0 in order not to waste flash if
Coffee is unused.
COFFEE_CONF_CUSTOM_PORT can be defined to a header file to be used with
"#include" in order to override the default CC2538 port of Coffee. This
makes it possible to use Coffee with an external memory device rather
than with the internal flash memory, without having to alter the Contiki
files.

No entry point was defined, so it defaulted to the beginning of the
.text output section where the vector table is located by default in
Contiki. Actually, the vector table may be located elsewhere, and the
ROM-based boot loader first reads the CCA to find the vector table.
Consequently, this commit sets the entry point to the CCA, which fixes
both the entry point and the initial symbol reference, so this commit
also removes the now-unneeded "__used__" and "KEEP" keywords from the
CCA.

The current CC2538 linker script in Contiki places the vector table at
the beginning of the flash memory / .text output section. However, this
location is arbitrary (the only requirement is that the vector table is
512-byte aligned), and custom linker scripts may be used with Contiki,
which means that Contiki may be used with a vector table placed
elsewhere. Thus, using the flash/.text start address in the CCA and as
the default NVIC VTABLE value was wrong.
This commit rather uses the address of the vectors[] array from
startup-gcc.c, which makes it possible to freely move around the vector
table without breaking anything or having to use a custom startup-gcc.c
and to configure the NVIC driver for that. Moreover, referencing the
vectors[] array naturally prevents it and its input section from being
garbage-collected by the linker, so this commit also removes the
now-unneeded "used" and "KEEP" keywords from the vector table.

The only thing needed for VTABLE is the absolute address of the vector
table. Splitting it between code/SRAM base and offset complicates things
and brings nothing.
Consequently, this commit merges the NVIC VTABLE configurations into a
single one giving the vector table absolute address.

Define the available CC2538 devices and their features, and use them to
define the linker script memory regions. The .nrdata output section is
now always defined in order to trigger an error if it is used but no
memory is available for it. The CC2538 device used by Contiki is made a
configuration option, the CC2538SF53 device being the default.
This makes more sense than defining the flash memory address and size as
configuration options like previously, all the more not all values are
possible and all the features are linked by each device.
This change also makes it possible to:
- use the correct SRAM parameters for the CC2538NF11,
- know at build time if the AES, SHA, ECC and RSA hardware features are
available on the selected CC2538 device.

The GNU linker ld searches and processes libraries and object files in
the order they are specified. Library files are archive files whose
members are object files. The linker handles an archive file by scanning
through it for members that define symbols that have so far been
referenced but not defined. But an ordinary object file is linked in the
usual fashion.
The C library is implicitly linked after all object files and libraries
specified on the command line.
Because of that, if the C library depends on the Contiki target library,
e.g. for the implementation of system calls, then these dependencies are
not linked, which results in undefined references. Actually, the Contiki
target library also needs the C library, hence a circular dependency
between these libraries, which means that explicitly adding -lc anywhere
on the command line can not help. The only solution in that case is to
pass these libraries to ld between --start-group and --end-group.
Archives grouped in this way are searched repeatedly by the linker until
no new undefined references are created.
This archive grouping option has a significant performance cost for the
linking stage. Moreover, having to use it and to pass -lc explicitly on
the command line is unusual, which is disturbing and more complicated
for users needing the C library to depend on the Contiki target library.
The same would be true for circular dependencies between the Contiki
target library and any other library.
Another issue with the Contiki target library is that it may alter the
apparent behavior of the weak vs. strong symbols, because of the way ld
handles archives, which may make it discard archive object files
containing strong versions of referenced symbols:
- If a symbol has a weak and a strong version in this library, both
inside the same object file, then the linker uses the strong
definition.
- If a weak symbol in this library has a strong counterpart in an
object file outside, then the linker uses the strong definition.
- If a strong symbol in this library is inside an object file
containing other referenced symbols, and has a weak counterpart
anywhere, then the linker uses the strong definition.
- If a strong symbol in this library is the only symbol referenced in
its object file, and has a weak counterpart in an object file
outside, then the linker uses the strong definition if this library
is linked first, and the weak one otherwise.
- If a strong symbol in this library is the only symbol referenced in
its object file, and has a weak counterpart in another object file in
this library, then the linker uses the definition from the first of
these objects added when creating this archive.
- If a symbol has a weak and a strong version, one in this library, and
the other in another library, then the rules are the same as if both
were in the Contiki target library.
The existence of cases where the linker uses a weak symbol despite the
presence of its strong counterpart in the sources compiled then passed
to the linker is very error-prone, all the more this behavior depends on
the order the object and archive files are passed on the command lines,
which may just result from the order of source files in lists where it
apparently does not matter. Such cases would be needed in the future,
e.g. to define weak default implementations of some system calls that
can be overridden by platform-specific implementations, both ending up
in the Contiki target library. There was already such a case used to
define the UART and USB ISRs as weak aliases of default_handler(),
relying on this implicit unusual behavior to keep default_handler() if
the UART or USB driver was unused, which was dangerous.
Since the Contiki target library was only used as an intermediate file
during the build, the current commit fixes these issues by simply
directly using the object files instead of building an intermediate
archive from them.
The CONTIKI_OBJECTFILES make variable would be incomplete if it were
used as a simple prerequisite in the %.elf rule in Makefile.cc2538,
because other object files are added to it after this rule. That's why
.SECONDEXPANSION is used to defer its expansion. Another solution would
have been to split Makefile.cc2538, with the variable assignments kept
in it, and the rule definitions moved to Makefile.customrules-cc2538,
but this would have required to add Makefile.customrules-<target> files
to all CC2538 platforms, only to include Makefile.customrules-cc2538.
The solution used here is much simpler.
Because the UART and USB ISRs were weak aliases of default_handler(),
this change would imply that these ISRs would always be used by the
linker instead of default_handler(), even if their drivers were
configured as unused with UART_CONF_ENABLE and USB_SERIAL_CONF_ENABLE,
which would be wrong. This commit fixes this issue by removing these
weak aliases and putting either these ISRs or default_handler() in the
vector table, depending on the configuration. Weak aliases are elegant,
but Contiki's build system does not currently allow to automatically
build or not source files depending on the configuration, so keeping
these weak aliases would have required to add #if constructs somewhere
in the source code, which would have broken their elegance and made them
pointless.

Using the AES interrupt allows the user process not to waste time
polling for the completion of the operation. This time can be used by
the user process to do something else, or to let the system enter PM0.
Since the system is now free to perform various operations during a
crypto operation, a protection of the crypto resource is added, and PM1+
is prohibited in order not to stall crypto operations.

The CC2538 the WDT cannot be stopped once it has been started.
The CC2530/1 WDT can be stopped if it is running in timer mode,
but it cannot be stopped once it has been started in watchdog mode.
Both platforms currently provide "dummy" implementations of `watchdog_stop()`,
one does nothing and the other one basically re-maps `_stop()` to
`_periodic()`.
This was originally done in order to provide implementations for all prototypes
declared in `core/dev/watchdog.h`. In hindsight and as per the discussion
in #1088, this is bad practice since, if the build succeeds, the caller will
expect that the WDT has in fact been stopped, when in reality it has not.
Since the feature (stopping the WDT) is unsupported by the hardware, this pull
removes those dummy implementations. Thus, we will now be able to reliably
detect - at build time - attempts at using this unsupported feature.
This is safer because the previous code assumed that the start and end
VMAs of .data and .bss were word-aligned, which is not always the case,
so the initialization code could write data outside these sections. The
ROM functions support any address boundary.
This is faster because the ROM functions are ultra optimized, using
realignment and the LDM/STM instructions, which is much better than the
previous simple loops of single word accesses.
This is smaller because the ROM functions don't require to add any code
to the target device other than simple function calls.
This makes the code simpler and more maintainable because standard
functions are not reimplemented and no assembly is used.
Note that this is also faster and smaller than the corresponding
functions from the standard string library.

In order to be fast, the reset_handler() function uses word accesses to
initialize the .data output section. However, most toolchains do not
automatically force the alignment of an output section LMA to use the
maximum alignment of all its input sections. Because of that, assuming
that .data contains some words, the LMA of the .data output section was
not word-aligned in some cases, resulting in an initialization performed
using slow unaligned word accesses.
This commit forces the alignment of the LMA of the .data output section
with a word boundary in order to always use fast aligned word accesses
to read the .data load area.
Note that this solution is better than using ALIGN_WITH_INPUT, both
because the latter is a new feature incompatible with older toolchains,
and because it could create a big gap between _etext and the LMA of
.data if strongly-aligned data were added to .data, although only a word
alignment is required here.
The same considerations apply to the VMA of .data. However, it is
already automatically word-aligned, both because .data contains words,
and because the end VMA of the previous output section (.socdata) is
word-aligned. Moreover, if the VMA of .data were forcibly word-aligned,
then a filled gap could appear at the beginning of this section if
strongly-aligned data were added to it, thus wasting flash memory.
Consequently, it's better not to change anything for the VMA of .data,
all the more it's very unlikely that it does not contain any word and
that the end VMA of .socdata becomes non-word-aligned, and this would
only result in a slower initialization.

Some toolchains, like Sourcery CodeBench Lite 2013.05-23 arm-none-eabi
(http://sourcery.mentor.com/public/gnu_toolchain/arm-none-eabi/)
automatically force the alignment of an output section LMA to use the
maximum alignment of all its input sections. This toolchain uses GNU
binutils 2.23, and this automatic behavior is the same as the manual
behavior of the ALIGN_WITH_INPUT feature of GNU binutils 2.24+.
This behavior is not an issue per se, but it creates a gap between
_etext and the LMA of the .data output section if _etext does not have
the same alignment, while reset_handler() initialized this section by
copying the data from _etext to its VMA, hence an offset in the
addresses of loaded data, and missing data.
This commit fixes this issue by making reset_handler() directly use the
LMA of the .data section using LOADADDR(.data), rather than assuming
that _etext is this LMA.
