Adding 23.02 version of the CMSIS pack generated from sources at
23.02 tag. Note that this is more than a year old but the refresh
was needed to support TensorFlow Lite Micro CMSIS-pack's current
version 1.23.2.

There will be another refresh of the pack soon, once dependency
packs are made available.

Refactoring for CMake configuration options to allow target platform
to drive their own defaults for certain dependent options.

For example, the MPS3 target platform defaults to SSE-300 sub-system
while native target doesn't need to worry about sub-system and CMSIS
options which it will never use. This allows MPS4 target to default
to SSE-315 and set the NPU arch to Arm Ethos-U65 as it should, which
otherwise would have had to be explictly specified by the user.

A welcome by-product of this is also that the options summary at the
end of a successful CMake configuration stage would only include the
settings that are actually used by the given target.

This patch adds initial support for MPS4 based Arm Corstone-315 FVPs.
The applications will execute on the FVP but with INITSVTOR set to
`0x12000000` explicitly. The default value is the 64kiB code region
at `0x11000000`. The linker scripts will be changed for the initial
boot logic and vector table to be moved to the code region.

This patch adds `source/hal/source/platform/mps4` directory. There is
considerable overlap with MPS3 platform and this is expected to be the
case until the support for MPS4 matures. Refactoring to pull in
common bits from these targets will follow. Same goes for the CMake
build support added under `scripts/cmake/platforms/mps4`.

* An optional argument has been added to the
  `set_up_default_resources.py` Python script to allow
  passing of a user defined use case resources metadata JSON file.
  This shortens the build time by only downloading the resources the
  end user is interested in. It also shortens the optimization part
  which takes additional minutes as it is done for all models and for
  all the specified NPU configurations.
* Adding changes to comply with Pylint
* Adding --use-case argument in `set_up_default_resources.py` to
  restrict setting up resources to the specified use cases.

The NPU timing adapter base addresses had been defined in mutiple
places, making it difficult to determine which one is actually being
used. This patch cleans up unused definitions from memory-map header
files for different targets and the CMake template files.

The expectation is for component base addresses to be set by platform
specific CMake files that include/wrap the component directories.

as the error messages appear in the console output of the next failing test.

Model:
Added std::unique_ptr qualifier to Model.cc member and
used make_unique when creating interpreter object
Removed custom destructor and un-necessary memory cleanup following
failed allocation

DataStructures:
Refactored array 2d to use a std::vector under the hood.
This should preserve desired attributes including contiguous
memory while removing the need for custom destructor.
Original size function renamed to dimSize to avoid confusion with
vector.size()
Accompanying changes made to preprocessing and ASR tests.

AppContext:
Replaced use of raw pointers in AppContext.hpp.
Previously a std::map including IAttribute pointers required
individual deallocation as they were allocated using new.
