Subject: python: Automatically disable listeners in batch setups

Determine if gem5 is running in a batch environment by checking if
STDIN is wired to a TTY or not. If the simulator is running in a batch
environment, disable all listeners by default. This behavior can be
overridden using the --enable-listeners option.
