Add initial NUMA awareness support (#378)
* Add a file containing useful macro definitions, currently a single top-level macro for obtaining the size of an array; use it to replace a sizeof(x) / sizeof(x[0]) construct in system/smbus.c . This requires switching the GCC build mode from C11 to C11 with GCC extensions.

* Initial NUMA awareness (#12) support: parse the ACPI SRAT to build up new internal structures related to proximity domains and affinity; use these structures in setup_vm_map() and calculate_chunk() to skip the work on the processors which don't belong to the proximity domain currently being tested.

Tested on a number of 1S single-domain, 2S multi-domain and 4S multi-domain platforms.

0e61b1605e Remove volatile qualifier from testword pointers.
Now we use the atomic read/write functions, these are redundant.

16d55b7dad Remove distinction between physical and virtual CPUs.
This is no longer needed, now we can display as many CPUs as we can
physically handle.

d9fee4dcbb Flush caches between writing and verifying test data.
Mostly we write and read large chunks of data which will make it likely
that the data is no longer in the cache when we come to verify it. But
this is not always true, and in any case, we shouldn't rely on it.

11c0c6c2f5 Use atomic memory read/write functions in tests.
This ensures compiler optimisations won't interfere with the tests.
