mem: Make the coherent crossbar account for timing snoops
This patch introduces the concept of a snoop latency. Given the
requirement to snoop and forward packets in zero time (due to the
coherency mechanism), the latency is accounted for later.
On a snoop, we establish the latency, and later add it to the header
delay of the packet. To allow multiple caches to contribute to the
snoop latency, we use a separate variable in the packet, and then take
the maximum before adding it to the header delay.
