This patch changes the way cache statistics are collected in ruby.
As of now, there is separate entity called CacheProfiler which holds
statistical variables for caches. The CacheMemory class defines different
functions for accessing the CacheProfiler. These functions are then invoked
in the .sm files. I find this approach opaque and prone to error. Secondly,
we probably should not be paying the cost of a function call for recording
statistics.
Instead, this patch allows for accessing statistical variables in the
.sm files. The collection would become transparent. Secondly, it would happen
in place, so no function calls. The patch also removes the CacheProfiler class.

This patch is as of now the final patch in the series of patches that replace
Time with Cycles.This patch further replaces Time with Cycles in Sequencer,
Profiler, different protocols and related entities.
Though Time has not been completely removed, the places where it is in use
seem benign as of now.

The patch started of with replacing Time with Cycles in the Consumer class.
But to get ruby to compile, the rest of the changes had to be carried out.
Subsequent patches will further this process, till we completely replace
Time with Cycles.

This makes it easier to add global variables like protocol

This is simply a translation of the C++ slicc into python with very minimal
reorganization of the code. The output can be verified as nearly identical
by doing a "diff -wBur".
Slicc can easily be run manually by using util/slicc
