---------------------------
tests: Add CPU switching tests

This changeset adds a set of tests that stress the CPU switching
code. It adds the following test configurations:

 * tsunami-switcheroo-full -- Alpha system (atomic, timing, O3)
 * realview-switcheroo-atomic -- ARM system (atomic<->atomic)
 * realview-switcheroo-timing -- ARM system (timing<->timing)
 * realview-switcheroo-o3 -- ARM system (O3<->O3)
 * realview-switcheroo-full -- ARM system (atomic, timing, O3)

Reference data is provided for the 10.linux-boot test case. All of the
tests trigger a CPU switch once per millisecond during the boot
process.

The in-order CPU model was not included in any of the tests as it does
not support CPU handover.
