At the same time, rename the trace flags to debug flags since they
have broader usage than simply tracing. This means that
--trace-flags is now --debug-flags and --trace-help is now --debug-help

non-cache.
This change fixes the problem for all the cases we actively use. If you want to try
more creative I/O device attachments (E.g. sharing an L2), this won't work. You
would need another level of caching between the I/O device and the cache
(which you actually need anyway with our current code to make sure writes
propagate). This is required so that you can mark the cache in between as
top level and it won't try to send ownership of a block to the I/O device.
Asserts have been added that should catch any issues.

This step makes it easy to replace the accessor functions
(which still access a global variable) with ones that access
per-thread curTick values.

On the config end, if a shared L2 is created for the system, it is
parameterized to have n sharers as defined by option.num_cpus. In addition to
making the cache sharing aware so that discriminating tag policies can make use
of context_ids to make decisions, I added an occupancy AverageStat and an occ %
stat to each cache so that you could know which contexts are occupying how much
cache on average, both in terms of blocks and percentage. Note that since
devices have context_id -1, having an array of occ stats that correspond to
each context_id will break here, so in FS mode I add an extra bucket for device
blocks. This bucket is explicitly not added in SE mode in order to not only
avoid ugliness in the stats.txt file, but to avoid broken stats (some formulas
break when a bucket is 0).

Previously there was one per bus, which caused some coherence problems
when more than one decided to respond. Now there is just one on
the main memory bus. The default bus responder on all other buses
is now the downstream cache's cpu_side port. Caches no longer need
to do address range filtering; instead, we just have a simple flag
to prevent snoops from propagating to the I/O bus.

For now, there is still a single global event queue, but this is
necessary for making the steps towards a parallelized m5.
