496a8c6c92 cpu: TraceGen fix for tick frequency check
Bug fix for check on protobuf file frequency being different than
global frequency.

The ASCII encoder script is also fixed, and the example trace used in
the regressions is updated.

c446dc40bd mem: Edit proto Packet and enhance the python script
This patch changes the decode script to output the optional fields of
the proto message Packet, namely id and flags. The flags field is set
by the communication monitor.

The id field is useful for CPU trace experiments, e.g. linking the
fetch side to decode side. It had to be renamed because it clashes
with a built in python function id() for getting the "identity" of an
object.

This patch also takes a few common function definitions out from the
multiple scripts and adds them to a protolib python module.

cc8911261e util: Auto generate the packet proto definitions
This patch simplifies the usage of the packet trace encoder/decoder by
attempting to automatically generating the packet proto definitions in
case they cannot be found.

7885a1646d util: Add a utility script for encoding packet traces
This patch adds a simple Python script that reads a simple ASCII trace
format and encodes it as protobuf output compatible with the traffic
generator.

The script can also be used as a template for other packet input
formats that should be converted to the gem5 packet protobuf format.
