Subject: [PATCH 2/7] firmware: arm_scmi: Add support for v3.2 NEGOTIATE_PROTOCOL_VERSION

Freshly introduced NEGOTIATE_PROTOCOL_VERSION allows the agent to ascertain
upfront if a specific, usually older, protocol version is supported by the
platform.

It is used by the agent in case the platform has advertised the support of
a newer protocol version than the latest version supported by the agent,
since backward compatibility cannot be automatically assumed.

Emit a warning about possible incompatibility when negotiation was not
possible or just print the successfully negotiated protocol.
