mem: Remove the GHB prefetcher from the source tree
There are two primary issues with this code which make it deserving of deletion.
1) GHB is a way to structure a prefetcher, not a definitive type of prefetcher
2) This prefetcher isn't even structured like a GHB prefetcher.
It's basically a worse version of the stride prefetcher.
It primarily serves to confuse new gem5 users and most functionality is already
present in the stride prefetcher.
