Disable PIE compilation option
ARM TF does not work correctly if built with a version of gcc
that is configured to use PIE by default (e.g. Debian Stretch).
This patch identifies when such a version of gcc is being used
(by searching for --enable-default-pie) and adds -fno-PIE option
to TF_CFLAGS.
fixes arm-software/tf-issues#519
