Add a memory system component that delays traffic. The base
functionality to delay packets is implemented in the abstract MemDelay
class. This class exposes three methods that control packet delays:
* delayReq(pkt)
* delayResp(pkt)
* delaySnoopResp(pkt)
These methods should be specialized to implement delays for specific
packet types.
The class SimpleMemDelay uses the MemDelay base class to implement
constant delays for read/write requests and responses.
The intention is that these classes can be used for rapid prototyping
of components that add a small fixed delay and the same throughput as
the interconnect. I.e., any buffering done in the base class will be
small and proportional to the introduced delay.
