They are basically used to tell wich component of the predictor is
providing the prediction and whether it is correct or wrong

The new derived LTAGE is equivalent to the original LTAGE implementation
The default values of the TAGE branch predictor match the settings of the
8C-TAGE configuration described in https://www.jilp.org/vol8/v8paper1.pdf

This includes TAGE tag sizes, TAGE table sizes, U counters reset period,
loop predictor associativity, path history size, the USE_ALT_ON_NA size
and the WITHLOOP size

Increased to 2 bits of useful counter per TAGE entry as described in the
LTAGE paper (and made the size configurable)
Changed how the useful counters are incremented/decremented as described
in the LTAGE paper

Fixed the following fields of the loop predictor entries as described on
the LTAGE paper:
- Age counter (it was 3 bits and it should be 8 bits)
- Tag (it was 16 bits and it should be 14 bits). Also some times it used
int variables and some times uint16_t, leading to wrong behaviour
- Confidence counter (it was 2 bits ins some parts of the code and 3 bits
in some other parts. It should be 2 bits)
- Iteration counters (they were 16 bits and they should be 14 bits)
All the new sizes are now configurable

The LTAGE paper states that only one TAGE entry can be

The LTAGE paper states 1 hyst bit shared for 4 pred bits.
Made this ratio configurable use 4 by default.
Also changed the Bimodal structure to use two std::vector<bool> (one for
pred and one for hyst bits)

These files aren't a collection of miscellaneous stuff, they're the
definition of the Logger interface, and a few utility macros for
calling into that interface (panic, warn, etc.).

This patch implements an L-TAGE predictor, based on André Seznec's code
available from CBP-2
(http://hpca23.cse.tamu.edu/taco/camino/cbp2/cbp-src/realistic-seznec.h).
