    arm64: Make SPSR exception masking on EL2 transition explicit
    
    The configuration of SPSR bits that mask processor exceptions is kinda
    oddly hidden as an implict part of the transition() function right now.
    It would be odd but not impossible for programs to want to be entered
    with enabled exceptions, so let's move these bits to be explicitly set
    by the caller like the rest of SPSR instead.
    
    Also clear up some macro names. The SPSR[I] bit is currently defined as
    SPSR_IRQ_ENABLE, which is particularly unfortunate since that bit
    actually *disables* (masks) interrupts. The fact that there is an
    additional SPSR_IRQ_MASK definition with the same value but a different
    purpose doesn't really help. There's rarely a point to have all three of
    xxx_SHIFT, xxx_MASK and xxx_VALUE macros for single-bit fields, so
    simplify this to a single definition per bit. (Other macros in
    lib_helpers.h should probably also be overhauled to conform, but I want
    to wait and see how many of them really stay relevant after upcoming
    changes first.)
