ARM: reference DPM defn from v6/v7 arch spec

The term "DPM" is probably not well known ("Device Power Management"?),
so identify its source in the current ARM architecture specification.
It's relevant to ARMv6, ARMv7-A, and ARMv7-R ... but not "M" profiles.

* Implements various ARM DPM operations using architectural debug registers.
* These routines layer over core-specific communication methods to cope with
* implementation differences between cores like ARM1136 and Cortex-A8.
*
* The "Debug Programmers' Model" (DPM) for ARMv6 and ARMv7 is defined by
* Part C (Debug Architecture) of the ARM Architecture Reference Manual,
* ARMv7-A and ARMv7-R edition (ARM DDI 0406B). In OpenOCD, DPM operations
* are abstracted through internal programming interfaces to share code and
* to minimize needless differences in debug behavior between cores.
