arch-arm,cpu: Add initial support for Arm SVE

This changeset adds initial support for the Arm Scalable Vector Extension
(SVE) by implementing:
- support for most data-processing instructions (no loads/stores yet);
- basic system-level support.

Additional authors:
- Javier Setoain <javier.setoain@arm.com>
- Gabor Dozsa <gabor.dozsa@arm.com>
- Giacomo Travaglini <giacomo.travaglini@arm.com>

Thanks to Pau Cabre for his contribution of bugfixes.

arm: Stop using the FloatReg and FloatRegBits types.

This will let us make those types 64 bits to be in line with the other
architectures.

arch-arm: Add FP16 support introduced by Armv8.2-A

This changeset adds support for FP/SIMD instructions with
half-precision floating-point operands.

arch: ISA parser additions of vector registers

Reiley's update :) of the isa parser definitions. My addition of the
vector element operand concept for the ISA parser. Nathanael's modification
creating a hierarchy between vector registers and its constituencies to the
isa parser.

Some fixes/updates on top to consider instructions as vectors instead of
floating when they use the VectorRF. Some counters added to all the
models to keep faithful counts.

arch-arm: Fix some poorly done type max and min in NEON

The ISA code for ARM calculates min and max elements for types using
bit manipulation. That triggers some warnings, treated as errors, as
the compiler can tell that there is an overflow and the sign
flips. Fixed using standard lib definitions instead.

isa: Add parameter to pick different decoder inside ISA

The decoder is responsible for splitting instructions in micro
operations (uops). Given that different micro architectures may split
operations differently, this patch allows to specify which micro
architecture each isa implements, so different cores in the system can
split instructions differently, also decoupling uop splitting
(microArch) from ISA (Arch). This is done making the decodification
calls templates that receive a type 'DecoderFlavour' that maps the
name of the operation to the class that implements it. This way there
is only one selection point (converting the command line enum to the
appropriate DecodeFeatures object). In addition, there is no explicit
code replication: template instantiation hides that, and the compiler
should be able to resolve a number of things at compile-time.

arch: Use shared_ptr for all Faults

This patch takes quite a large step in transitioning from the ad-hoc
RefCountingPtr to the c++11 shared_ptr by adopting its use for all
Faults. There are no changes in behaviour, and the code modifications
are mostly just replacing "new" with "make_shared".

arm: add preliminary ISA splits for ARM arch


# 10037:5cac77888310 24-Jan-2014 ARM gem5 Developers

arm: Add support for ARMv8 (AArch64 & AArch32)

Note: AArch64 and AArch32 interworking is not supported. If you use an AArch64
kernel you are restricted to AArch64 user-mode binaries. This will be addressed
in a later patch.

Note: Virtualization is only supported in AArch32 mode. This will also be fixed
in a later patch.
