Implementation of a Second-Chance replacement policy. Similar to FIFO,
but every block is given a second chance if it has been touched.

Replacement data is specific for each replacement policy, and thus
should be instantiated differently by each policy.
Touch() and reset() do not need to be aware of CacheBlk, as they
only update its ReplacementData.
Invalidate() makes replacement policies independent of cache blocks,
by removing the awareness of the valid state.
An inheritable base ReplaceableEntry class was created to allow usage
of replacement policies with any table-like structure.

With this patch a gem5 System will store more info about its Masters.
While it was previously keeping track of the Master name and Master ID
only, it is now adding a per-Master pointer to the SimObject related to
the Master.
This will make it possible for a client to query a System for a Master
using either the master's name or the master's pointer.

Use block iteration instead of numSets and assoc in print(),
cleanupRefs() and computeStats().
This makes these functions rely solely on what they are used for:
printing and calculating stats of blocks. With the addition of
Sectors an extra indirection level is added, and thus these
functions would be skipping blocks.

There are many devices that need to handle reads/writes of different
word sizes. A common pattern is a switch statement that check for the
size of a packet and then calls the corresponding
Packet::(get|set)<uintXX_t> methods. Simplify this by implementing
Packet::(get|set)UintX helper functions.
The getter reads a word of the size specified in the packet and the
specified endianness. The word is then zero-extended to 64
bits. Conversely, the setter truncates the word down to the size
required in the packet and then byte-swaps it to the desired
endianness.

Replacement policies (LRU, Random) are currently considered as array
indexing methods, but have completely different functionalities:
- Array indexers determine the possible locations for block allocation.
This information is used to generate replacement candidates when
conflicts happen.
- Replacement policies determine which of the replacement candidates
should be evicted to make room for new allocations.
For this reason, they were split into different classes. Advantages:
- Easier and more straightforward to implement other replacement
policies (RRIP, LFU, ARC, ...)
- Allow easier future implementation of cache organization schemes
As now we can't assure the use of sets, the previous way to create a
true LRU is not viable. Now a timestamp_bits parameter controls how
many bits are dedicated for the timestamp, and a true LRU can be
achieved through an infinite number of bits (although a few bits suffice
in practice).

Block allocation can fail when there is an in-service MSHR that
operates on the victim block. This can happed due to:
* an upgrade operation: a request that needs a writable copy of the
block finds a shared (non-writable) copy of the block in the cache
and has allocates an MSHR for the pending upgrade operation, or
* a clean operation: a clean request finds a dirty copy of the block
and allocates an MSHR for the pending clean operation.
This changes relaxes an assertion to allow for the 2nd case (cache
clean operations).

Only a small quantity of prefetches were issued, as the positive
feedback mechanism was not implemented. This commit adds a new
action po_observeHit, which notifies the RubyPrefetcher of
successful prefetches and resets the prefetch flag.
When a cache line was replaced by a prefetch, the wrong queue could
be stalled. This commit adds a new event PF_L1_Replacement, which
stalls the correct queue.
The behavior when receiving a prefetch or instruction fetch while
in PF_IS_I (prefetch caused GETs, but got invalidated before the
response was received) was undefined. This was changed to drop the
prefetch request or change the state to non-prefetch, respectively.
This behavior is analogous to IS_I (non-prefetch caused GETs, but
got invalidated before the response was received) and the data case,
respectively.
In my local branch a major (20+%) performance increase can be
observed in SPEC2006 gobmk and leslie3d when enabling the
prefetcher. Some other benchmarks like bwaves, GemsFDTD, sphinx and
wrf show smaller (~10%) performance increases. Unfortunately, the
performance in most other SPEC benchmarks is still poor, most likely
as the prefetcher does not detect strides fast/often enough. In
order to push the change timely (most benchmarks have runtimes in
the order of days on my machine even with the smallest parameters)
after checkout, I have only run gobmk with the base repository
+ this commit. The results match those of my local branch.
