Steve Reinhardt ext:(%2C%20Nilay%20Vaish%20%3Cnilay%40cs.wisc.edu%3E%2C%20Ali%20Saidi%20%3CAli.Saidi%40ARM.com%3E) de366a16f1 sim: simulate with multiple threads and event queues
This patch adds support for simulating with multiple threads, each of
which operates on an event queue.  Each sim object specifies which eventq
is would like to be on.  A custom barrier implementation is being added
using which eventqs synchronize.

The patch was tested in two different configurations:
1. ruby_network_test.py: in this simulation L1 cache controllers receive
   requests from the cpu. The requests are replied to immediately without
   any communication taking place with any other level.
2. twosys-tsunami-simple-atomic: this configuration simulates a client-server
   system which are connected by an ethernet link.

We still lack the ability to communicate using message buffers or ports. But
other things like simulation start and end, synchronizing after every quantum
are working.
