Also some bug fixes in MIPS ISA uncovered by g++ warnings
(Python string compares don't work in C++!).

SimObjects not yet updated:
- Process and subclasses
- BaseCPU and subclasses
The SimObject(const std::string &name) constructor was removed. Subclasses
that still rely on that behavior must call the parent initializer as
: SimObject(makeParams(name))

The page table now stores actual page table entries. It is still a templated
class here, but this will be corrected in the near future.

In O3, a nop is used to carry faults down the pipeline that didn't originate
from an instruction. If the instruction doesn't do anything, that is just
returns NoFault, but doesn't have IsNop set, the NoFault will overwrite the
fault that's being sent down and nothing will happen.

Each "strand" may need to have a private copy of this state, but I couldn't
find anywhere in the spec that said that after looking briefly.
This prevents writes to the thread context in o3 which was causing the
pipeline to be flushed and stopping any forward progress. The other ASI
accessible state will probably need to be accessed differently if/when we get
O3 full system up and running.

Move the argument files to src/sim and add a utility.cc file with a function
getArguments() that returns the given argument in the architecture specific fashion.
getArguments() was getArg() is the architecture specific Argument class and has had
all magic numbers replaced with meaningful constants. Also add a function to the
Argument class for testing if an argument is NULL.

The initial stack frame for x86 is now substantially more correct. The fixes made here can be back ported to SPARC and possible the other ISAs as well. The auxiliary vector types were moved to the LiveProcess base class because they are independent of ISA. Some of the types may only apply to Linux, though, so they may have to be moved.

Code was assuming that all argument registers followed in order from ArgumentReg0. There is now an ArgumentReg array which is indexed to find the right index. There is a constant, NumArgumentRegs, which can be used to protect against using an invalid ArgumentReg.

creation and initialization now happens in python. Parameter objects
are generated and initialized by python. The .ini file is now solely for
debugging purposes and is not used in construction of the objects in any
way.
