mem: refactor LRU cache tags and add random replacement tags
this patch implements a new tags class that uses a random replacement policy. these tags prefer to evict invalid blocks first, if none are available a replacement candidate is chosen at random. this patch factors out the common code in the LRU class and creates a new abstract class: the BaseSetAssoc class. any set associative tag class must implement the functionality related to the actual replacement policy in the following methods: accessBlock() findVictim() insertBlock() invalidate()
