[PATCH v7 4/4] firmware: arm_scmi: optee: use optee system invocation

Changes SCMI optee transport to call tee_client_system_session()
to request optee driver to provision an entry context in OP-TEE
for processing OP-TEE messages. This prevents possible deadlock
in case OP-TEE threads are all consumed while these may be waiting
for a clock or regulator to be enable which SCMI OP-TEE service which
requires a free thread context to execute.
