Prefetchers can be configured to operate with virtual or physical addreses.
The option can be configured through the "use_virtual_addresses" parameter
of the Prefetcher object.

Prefetcher code had extra variables, dependencies
that could be removed, code duplication, and missing
overrides.

The HW Prefetcher of a cache can now listen events
from their associated CPUs and from its own cache.

Queued prefetcher entries now count with a priority field. The idea is to
add packets ordered by priority and then by age.
For the existing algorithms in which priority doesn't make sense, it is set
to 0 for all deferred packets in the queue.

Re-organizes the prefetcher class structure. Previously the
BasePrefetcher forced multiple assumptions on the prefetchers that
inherited from it. This patch makes the BasePrefetcher class truly
representative of base functionality. For example, the base class no
longer enforces FIFO order. Instead, prefetchers with FIFO requests
(like the existing stride and tagged prefetchers) now inherit from a
new QueuedPrefetcher base class.
Finally, the stride-based prefetcher now assumes a custimizable lookup table
(sets/ways) rather than the previous fully associative structure.
