[RFC PATCH v1 1/9] iommu/kho: Extend IOMMU KHO ABI for ARM SMMUv3

Extend the KHO IOMMU ABI to support state preservation for Arm SMMUv3.

Introduce struct iommu_smmuv3_hw_ser to capture SMMU hardware state,
including the register base, Stream Table config and Live Update state
tokens for the preserved Stream Tables.

Additionally, introduce struct iommu_master_smmuv3_ser to capture per
master state. For now it is used to preserve CD tables for Stage-1
translation.
