Andreas Hansson 13b9d4215d mem: Deallocate all write-queue entries when sent
This patch removes the write-queue entry tracking previously used for
uncacheable writes. The write-queue entry is now deallocated as soon
as the packet is sent. As a result we also forego the stats for
uncacheable writes. Additionally, there is no longer a need to attach
the write-queue entry to the packet.

Andreas Hansson 041ea8107e mem: Create a separate class for the cache write buffer
This patch breaks out the cache write buffer into a separate class,
without affecting any stats. The goal of the patch is to avoid
encumbering the much-simpler write queue with the complex MSHR
handling. In a follow on patch this simplification allows us to
implement write combining.

The WriteQueue gets its own class, but shares a common ancestor, the
generic Queue, with the MSHRQueue.
