dev, virtio: Improvements to diod process handling
* When dispatching multiple gem5 simulations at once, they race for the socket id, resulting in a panic when calling 'bind'. To avoid this problem, the socket id is now created before the diod process is created. In case of a race, a panic is called in the gem5 process, whereas before the panic was called in the diod process where it didn't have any effect.
* In some cases killing the diod process in terminateDiod() using only SIGTERM failed, so a call using SIGKILL is added.

dev: Add basic checkpoint support to VirtIO9PProxy device
This patch adds very basic checkpoint support for the VirtIO9PProxy device. Previously, attempts to checkpoint gem5 with a present 9P device caused gem5 to fatal as none of the state is tracked. We still do not track any state, but we replace the fatal with a warning which is triggered if the device has been used by the guest system. In the event that it has not been used, we assume that no state is lost during checkpointing. The warning is triggered on both a serialize and an unserialize to ensure maximum visibility for the user.

misc: Add explicit overrides and fix other clang >= 3.5 issues
This patch adds explicit overrides as this is now required when using "-Wall" with clang >= 3.5, the latter now part of the most recent XCode. The patch consequently removes "virtual" for those methods where "override" is added. The latter should be enough of an indication.
As part of this patch, a few minor issues that clang >= 3.5 complains about are also resolved (unused methods and variables).

misc: Remove redundant compiler-specific defines
This patch moves away from using M5_ATTR_OVERRIDE and the m5::hashmap (and similar) abstractions, as these are no longer needed with gcc 4.7 and clang 3.1 as minimum compiler versions.

sim: Refactor the serialization base class
Objects that are can be serialized are supposed to inherit from the Serializable class. This class is meant to provide a unified API for such objects. However, so far it has mainly been used by SimObjects due to some fundamental design limitations. This changeset redesigns to the serialization interface to make it more generic and hide the underlying checkpoint storage. Specifically:
* Add a set of APIs to serialize into a subsection of the current object. Previously, objects that needed this functionality would use ad-hoc solutions using nameOut() and section name generation. In the new world, an object that implements the interface has the methods serializeSection() and unserializeSection() that serialize into a named /subsection/ of the current object. Calling serialize() serializes an object into the current section.
* Move the name() method from Serializable to SimObject as it is no longer needed for serialization. The fully qualified section name is generated by the main serialization code on the fly as objects serialize sub-objects.
* Add a scoped ScopedCheckpointSection helper class. Some objects need to serialize data structures, that are not deriving from Serializable, into subsections. Previously, this was done using nameOut() and manual section name generation. To simplify this, this changeset introduces a ScopedCheckpointSection() helper class. When this class is instantiated, it adds a new /subsection/ and subsequent serialization calls during the lifetime of this helper class happen inside this section (or a subsection in case of nested sections).
* The serialize() call is now const which prevents accidental state manipulation during serialization. Objects that rely on modifying state can use the serializeOld() call instead. The default implementation simply calls serialize(). Note: The old-style calls need to be explicitly called using the serializeOld()/serializeSectionOld() style APIs. These are used by default when serializing SimObjects.
* Both the input and output checkpoints now use their own named types. This hides underlying checkpoint implementation from objects that need checkpointing and makes it easier to change the underlying checkpoint storage code.

dev: Add support for 9p proxying over VirtIO
This patch adds support for 9p filesystem proxying over VirtIO. It can currently operate by connecting to a 9p server over a socket (VirtIO9PSocket) or by starting the diod 9p server and connecting over pipe (VirtIO9PDiod).
*WARNING*: Checkpoints are currently not supported for systems with 9p proxies!
