Subject: base: Defining make_unique for C++11

std::make_unique is not available for C++11 compilers, and it has been
introduced only in C++14.  Since gem5 is not officially supporting the
latter at the moment, this patch allows to use it in gem5 if including
base/compiler.hh. If compiled under C++14, std::make_unique will be
used instead.
