Build Firmware Update images by default when supported
This patch enables the compilation of the Firmware Update non-secure images by default on platforms that support it. The FIRMWARE_UPDATE build flag is no longer expected on the build command line ; instead it is a platform makefile setting. Platforms that support Firmware Update should explicitly set this variable to 1. This is now the case for FVP and Juno. In other words, * On platforms that support Firmware Update, 'make all' will now build the TFTF, NS_BL1U and NS_BL2U binaries. * On platforms that do not support Firmware Update, 'make all' will build just the TFTF binary.
