Andreas Hansson 48d07b3fa3 configs: Add a lat_mem_rd style test script
This patch adds a config script that broadly replicates the behaviour
of lat_mem_rd. The test is based on traffic generators, and as such we
simply randomise addresses in increasingly large ranges, and play them
back using the trace functionality of the traffic generator.

The test script is accompanied by a post-processing and visualisation
script. At the moment no configurability is added to tweak the memory
hierarchy, but a follow on patch could easily extend the
functionality.
