inorder: initialize res. req. vectors based on resource bandwidth
first change in an optimization that will stop InOrder from allocating new memory for every instruction's
request to a resource. This gets expensive since every instruction needs to access ~10 requests before
graduation. Instead, the plan is to allocate just enough resource request objects to satisfy each resource's
bandwidth (e.g. the execution unit would need to allocate 3 resource request objects for a 1-issue pipeline
since on any given cycle it could have 2 read requests and 1 write request) and then let the instructions
contend and reuse those allocated requests. The end result is a smaller memory footprint for the InOrder model
and increased simulation performance
