mem: Minimize the use of MemObject.

MemObject doesn't provide anything beyond its base ClockedObject any
more, so this change removes it from most inheritance hierarchies.
Occasionally MemObject is replaced with SimObject when I was fairly
confident that the extra functionality of ClockedObject wasn't needed.

arch, cpu, dev, gpu, mem, sim, python: start using getPort.

Replace the getMasterPort, getSlavePort, and getEthPort functions
with getPort, and remove extraneous mechanisms that are no longer
necessary.

mem: Rename Packet::checkFunctional to trySatisfyFunctional

Packet::checkFunctional also wrote data to/from the packet depending
on if it was read/write, respectively, which the 'check' in the name
would suggest otherwise. This renames it to doFunctional, which is
more suggestive. It also renames any function called checkFunctional
which calls Packet::checkFunctional. These are

- Bridge::BridgeMasterPort::checkFunctional
- calls Packet::checkFunctional
- MSHR::checkFunctional
- calls Packet::checkFunctional
- MSHR::TargetList::checkFunctional
- calls Packet::checkFunctional
- Queue<>::checkFunctional
(of src/mem/cache/queue.hh, not src/cpu/minor/buffers.h)
- Instantiated with Queue<WriteQueueEntry> and Queue<MSHR>
- WriteQueueEntry
- calls Packet::checkFunctional
- WriteQueueEntry::TargetList
- calls Packet::checkFunctional
- MemDelay::checkFunctional
- calls QueuedSlavePort/QueuedMasterPort::checkFunctional
- Packet::checkFunctional
- PacketQueue::checkFunctional
- calls Packet::checkFunctional
- QueuedSlavePort::checkFunctional
- calls PacketQueue::doFunctional
- QueuedMasterPort::checkFunctional
- calls PacketQueue::doFunctional
- SerialLink::SerialLinkMasterPort::checkFunctional
- calls Packet::doFunctional

mem: Add a memory delay simulator

Add a memory system component that delays traffic. The base
functionality to delay packets is implemented in the abstract MemDelay
class. This class exposes three methods that control packet delays:

* delayReq(pkt)
* delayResp(pkt)
* delaySnoopResp(pkt)

These methods should be specialized to implement delays for specific
packet types.

The class SimpleMemDelay uses the MemDelay base class to implement
constant delays for read/write requests and responses.

The intention is that these classes can be used for rapid prototyping
of components that add a small fixed delay and the same throughput as
the interconnect. I.e., any buffering done in the base class will be
small and proportional to the introduced delay.
