armv7: add a wrapper for romstage's main() for ARM ISA
This adds a wrapper around main() in romstage which is compiled using -marm. This assumes that the bootblock branches to romstage in ARM mode.
The long-term idea is to enforce ABI compatibility when handing off to the next stage by using shims which are which are compiled in a pre- determiend manner and leave the main portions of each stage up to whatever the compiler wants. So it will eventually look like this: 1. bootblock_main (ARM/Thumb) 2. bootblock_exit (ARM) 3. romstage_entry (ARM) 4. romstage_main (ARM/Thumb)
