[PATCH v7 05/11] arm64: kexec_file: create purgatory

This is a basic purgatory, or a kind of glue code between the two kernels,
for arm64.

Since purgatory is assumed to be relocatable (not executable) object by
kexec generic code, arch_kexec_apply_relocations_add() is required in
general. Arm64's purgatory, however, is a simple asm and all the references
can be resolved as local, no re-linking is needed here.

Please note that even if we don't support digest check at purgatory we
need purgatory_sha_regions and purgatory_sha256_digest as they are
referenced by generic kexec code.
