config: Add an option to generate a random topology in memcheck
This change adds the option to use the memcheck with random memory hierarchies at the moment limited to a maximum depth of 3 allowing testing with uncommon topologies. Change-Id: Id2c2fe82a8175d9a67eb4cd7f3d2e2720a809b60 Reviewed-by: Andreas Hansson <andreas.hansson@arm.com>
