PLDM Message Structure Change

With this change, PLDM code is optimised. The PLDM payload message
structure previously consisted of a pointer to the payload message and
the payload length, this structure is removed with this commit and the
PLDM message structure now has the PLDM header structure and an array of
size 1 whose address is the starting byte of message payload. Therefore,
pldm msg struct can represent a request/response message in contiguous
memory, thereby enabling simple casts and avoiding memcpys to get from a
uint8_t* to pldm msg or vice versa.

This commit also introduces a change to have the response handlers allocate
memory for responses. This is aligned with the message struct change, and
enables varying length responses.
