CacheMemory: add allocateVoid() that is == allocate() but no return value.
This function duplicates the functionality of allocate() exactly, except that it does not return a return value. In protocols where you just want to allocate a block but do not want that block to be your implicitly passed cache_entry, use this function. Otherwise, SLICC will complain if you do not consume the pointer returned by allocate(), and if you do a dummy assignment Entry foo := cache.allocate(address), the C++ compiler will complain of an unused variable. This is kind of a hack to get around those issues, but suggestions welcome.
