branch predictor: move out of o3 and inorder cpus

This patch moves the branch predictor files in the o3 and inorder directories
to src/cpu/pred. This allows sharing the branch predictor across different
cpu models.

This patch was originally posted by Timothy Jones in July 2010
but never made it to the repository.
