Hardware may have specific restrictions on GuC WOPCM partition

there's no way to adjust the GuC WOPCM partition size based on
the actual HuC firmware size, so that GuC/HuC loading failure
would occur even if there was enough WOPCM space for both
GuC and HuC firmware.
WOPCM being a shared feature of the hardware, it should not go under
intel_guc_ prefix.

There should be a clear division of what is specific to GuC feature
only and what is just a feature that happens to be used by GuC (and
equally can be used by HuC too).
the intel_guc_wopcm here only refers to the wopcm used by
GuC, this structure only defines the GuC related wopcm info.
(wopcm partition for GuC). We only need to set these values
(defined in this structure) to GuC registers. And this structure
should never be touched if GuC was disabled. so it should be
a part of GuC.
