config: Enable elastic trace capture and replay in se/fs
This patch adds changes to the configuration scripts to support elastic tracing and replay. The patch adds a command line option to enable elastic tracing in SE mode and FS mode. When enabled the Elastic Trace cpu probe is attached to O3CPU and a few O3 CPU parameters are tuned. The Elastic Trace probe writes out both instruction fetch and data dependency traces. The patch also enables configuring the TraceCPU to replay traces using the SE and FS script. The replay run is designed to resume from checkpoint using atomic cpu to restore state keeping it consistent with FS run flow. It then switches to TraceCPU to replay the input traces.
