mem: Option to toggle DRAM low-power states
Adding an option to enable DRAM low-power states. The low power states can have a significant impact on application performance (sim_ticks) on the order of 2-3x, especially for compute-gpu apps. The options allows for it to easily be enabled/disabled to compare performance numbers. The option is disabled by default.
