Andrew Bardsley bf78299f04 cpu: Add flag name printing to StaticInst
This patch adds a the member function StaticInst::printFlags to allow all
of an instruction's flags to be printed without using the individual
is... member functions or resorting to exposing the 'flags' vector

It also replaces the enum definition StaticInst::Flags with a
Python-generated enumeration and adds to the enum generation mechanism
in src/python/m5/params.py to allow Enums to be placed in namespaces
other than Enums or, alternatively, in wrapper structs allowing them to
be inherited by other classes (so populating that class's name-space
with the enumeration element names).

This is the gem5 simulator.

For detailed information about building the simulator and getting
started please refer to:

Short version:
External tools and required versions

To build gem5, you will need the following software:
g++ version 4.3 or newer.
Python, version 2.4 - 2.7 (we don't support Python 3.X). gem5 links in the 
    Python interpreter, so you need the Python header files and shared 
    library (e.g., /usr/lib/libpython2.4.so) in addition to the interpreter
    executable. These may or may not be installed by default. For example,
    on Debian/Ubuntu, you need the "python-dev" package in addition to the
    "python" package. If you need a newer or different Python installation
     but can't or don't want to upgrade the default Python on your system,
     see http://www.gem5.org/Using_a_non-default_Python_installation
SCons, version 0.98.1 or newer. SCons is a powerful replacement for make. 
    If you don't have administrator privileges on your machine, you can use the
    "scons-local" package to install scons in your m5 directory, or install SCons
    in your home directory using the '--prefix=' option.  
SWIG, version 1.3.34 or newer
zlib, any recent version. For Debian/Ubuntu, you will need the "zlib-dev" or
    "zlib1g-dev" package to get the zlib.h header file as well as the library
    itself.
m4, the macro processor.


4. In this directory, type 'scons build/<ARCH>/gem5.opt' where ARCH is one
of ALPHA, ARM, MIPS, POWER, SPARC, or X86. This will build an optimized version
of the gem5 binary (gem5.opt) for the the specified architecture.

If you have questions, please send mail to gem5-users@gem5.org

WHAT'S INCLUDED (AND NOT)
-------------------------

The basic source release includes these subdirectories:
 - gem5:
   - configs: example simulation configuration scripts
   - ext: less-common external packages needed to build gem5
   - src: source code of the gem5 simulator
   - system: source for some optional system software for simulated systems
   - tests: regression tests
   - util: useful utility programs and files

To run full-system simulations, you will need compiled system firmware
(console and PALcode for Alpha), kernel binaries and one or more disk images.
