config: Command line support for multi-channel memory
This patch adds support for specifying multi-channel memory configurations on the command line, e.g. 'se/fs.py --mem-type=ddr3_1600_x64 --mem-channels=4'. To enable this, it enhances the functionality of MemConfig and moves the existing makeMultiChannel class method from SimpleDRAM to the support scripts. The se/fs.py example scripts are updated to make use of the new feature.
