Used cppclean to help identify useless includes and removed them. This
involved erroneously included headers, but also cases where forward
declarations could have been used rather than a full include.

This patch adds some basic support for power models in gem5.
The power interface is defined so it can interact with thermal
models as well. It implements a simple power evaluator that
can be used for simple power models that express power in the
form of a math expression. These expressions can use stats
within the same SimObject (or down its hierarchy) and some
magic variables such as "temp" for temperature.
In future patches we will extend this functionality to allow
slightly more complex expressions.
The model allows it to be extended to use other kinds of models.

Finally, the thermal model is updated to use the power usage as input.

This patch adds basic thermal support to gem5. It models energy dissipation
through a circuital equivalent, which allows us to use RC networks.
This lays down the basic infrastructure to do so, but it does not "work" due
to the lack of power models. For now some hardcoded number is used as a PoC.
The solver is embedded in the patch.

This patch adds the SubSystem container for grouping
simobjects together in logical subsystems to facilitate
building a larger system from constituent parts. The container
is simply a non-abstract empty simobject to hold the components
that will be connected as its children. In simulation the
object does not participate, its only use is during configuration
of the system.
