d3aebe1f91 ruby: replaces Time with Cycles in many places
The patch started of with replacing Time with Cycles in the Consumer class.
But to get ruby to compile, the rest of the changes had to be carried out.
Subsequent patches will further this process, till we completely replace
Time with Cycles.

c0ab52799c sim: Include object header files in SWIG interfaces
When casting objects in the generated SWIG interfaces, SWIG uses
classical C-style casts ( (Foo *)bar; ). In some cases, this can
degenerate into the equivalent of a reinterpret_cast (mainly if only a
forward declaration of the type is available). This usually works for
most compilers, but it is known to break if multiple inheritance is
used anywhere in the object hierarchy.

This patch introduces the cxx_header attribute to Python SimObject
definitions, which should be used to specify a header to include in
the SWIG interface. The header should include the declaration of the
wrapped object. We currently don't enforce header the use of the
header attribute, but a warning will be generated for objects that do
not use it.

287ea1a081 Param: Transition to Cycles for relevant parameters
This patch is a first step to using Cycles as a parameter type. The
main affected modules are the CPUs and the Ruby caches. There are
definitely plenty more places that are affected, but this patch serves
as a starting point to making the transition.

An important part of this patch is to actually enable parameters to be
specified as Param.Cycles which involves some changes to params.py.

86d6b788f6 ruby: banked cache array resource model
This patch models a cache as separate tag and data arrays.  The patch exposes
the banked array as another resource that is checked by SLICC before a
transition is allowed to execute.  This is similar to how TBE entries and slots
in output ports are modeled.

45b411fc5f Ruby: Commit files missing from previous commit
The previous commit on functional access support in Ruby did not have
some of the files required. This patch adds those files to the repository.

c86f849d5a Ruby: Add support for functional accesses
This patch rpovides functional access support in Ruby. Currently only
the M5Port of RubyPort supports functional accesses. The support for
functional through the PioPort will be added as a separate patch.

f88faa6c11 ruby: cleaned up ruby profilers
Cleaned up the ruby profilers by moving the memory controller profiling code
out of the main profiler object and into a separate object similar to the
current CacheProfiler.  Both the CacheProfiler and MemCntrlProfiler are
specific to a particular Ruby object, CacheMemory and MemoryControl
respectively.  Therefore, these profilers should not be SimObjects and
created by the python configuration system, but instead private objects.  This
simplifies the creation of these profilers.

ed81489954 ruby: Ruby changes required to use the python config system
This patch includes the necessary changes to connect ruby objects using
the python configuration system.  Mainly it consists of removing
unnecessary ruby object pointers and connecting the necessary object
pointers using the generated param objects.  This patch includes the
slicc changes necessary to connect generated ruby objects together using
the python configuraiton system.

98c94cfe3c ruby: Convert most Ruby objects to M5 SimObjects.
The necessary companion conversion of Ruby objects generated by SLICC
are converted to M5 SimObjects in the following patch, so this patch
alone does not compile.
Conversion of Garnet network models is also handled in a separate
patch; that code is temporarily disabled from compiling to allow
testing of interim code.
