probe: Add probe in Fetch, IEW, Rename and Commit
This patch adds probe points in Fetch, IEW, Rename and Commit stages as follows. A probe point is added in the Fetch stage for probing when a fetch request is sent. Notify is fired on the probe point when a request is sent succesfully in the first attempt as well as on a retry attempt. Probe points are added in the IEW stage when an instruction begins to execute and when execution is complete. This points can be used for monitoring the execution time of an instruction. Probe points are added in the Rename stage to probe renaming of source and destination registers and when there is squashing. These probe points can be used to track register dependencies and remove when there is squashing. A probe point for squashing is added in Commit to probe squashed instructions.
