ruby: Import ruby and slicc from GEMS
We eventually plan to replace the m5 cache hierarchy with the GEMS hierarchy, but for now we will make both live alongside eachother.

+/**
+ * Implementation of tree-based pseudo-LRU replacement
+ *
+ * Works for any associativity between 1 and 128.
+ *
+ * Also implements associativities that are not a power of 2 by
+ * ignoring paths that lead to a larger index (i.e. truncating the
+ * tree). Note that when this occurs, the algorithm becomes less
+ * fair, as it will favor indicies in the larger (by index) half of
+ * the associative set. This is most unfair when the nearest power of
+ * 2 is one below the associativy, and most fair when it is one above.
