stats: Fixing regStats function for some SimObjects

Fixing an issue with regStats not calling the parent class method
for most SimObjects in Gem5. This causes issues if one adds new
stats in the base class (since they are never initialized properly!).

power: Add power states to ClockedObject

Add 4 power states to the ClockedObject, provides necessary access functions
to check and update the power state. Default power state is UNDEFINED, it is
responsibility of the respective simulation model to provide the startup state
and any other logic for state change.

Add number of transition stat.
Add distribution of time spent in clock gated state.
Add power state residency stat.

Add dump call back function to allow stats update of distribution and residency
stats.

ruby: print addresses in hex
Changeset 4872dbdea907 replaced Address by Addr, but did not make changes to
print statements. So the addresses which were being printed in hex earlier
along with their line address, were now being printed in decimals. This patch
adds a function printAddress(Addr) that can be used to print the address in hex
along with the lines address. This function has been put to use in some of the
places. At other places, change has been made to print just the address in
hex.

ruby: rename System.{hh,cc} to RubySystem.{hh,cc}

The eventual aim of this change is to pass RubySystem pointers through to
objects generated from the SLICC protocol code.

Because some of these objects need to dereference their RubySystem pointers,
they need access to the System.hh header file.

In src/mem/ruby/SConscript, the MakeInclude function creates single-line header
files in the build directory that do nothing except include the corresponding
header file from the source tree.

However, SLICC also generates a list of header files from its symbol table, and
writes it to mem/protocol/Types.hh in the build directory. This code assumes
that the header file name is the same as the class name.

The end result of this is the many of the generated slicc files try to include
RubySystem.hh, when the file they really need is System.hh. The path of least
resistence is just to rename System.hh to RubySystem.hh.

ruby: replace Address by Addr
This patch eliminates the type Address defined by the ruby memory system.
This memory system would now use the type Addr that is in use by the
rest of the system.

mem: Dynamically determine page bytes in memory components

This patch takes a step towards an ISA-agnostic memory
system by enabling the components to establish the page size after
instantiation. The swap operation in the memory is now also allowing
any granularity to avoid depending on the IntReg of the ISA.

ruby: replace Time with Cycles (final patch in the series)
This patch is as of now the final patch in the series of patches that replace
Time with Cycles.This patch further replaces Time with Cycles in Sequencer,
Profiler, different protocols and related entities.

Though Time has not been completely removed, the places where it is in use
seem benign as of now.

ruby: remove calls to g_system_ptr->getTime()
This patch further removes calls to g_system_ptr->getTime() where ever other
clocked objects are available for providing current time.

ruby: add a prefetcher
This patch adds a prefetcher for the ruby memory system. The prefetcher
is based on a prefetcher implemented by others (well, I don't know
who wrote the original). The prefetcher does stride-based prefetching,
both unit and non-unit. It obseves the misses in the cache and trains on
these. After the training period is over, the prefetcher starts issuing
prefetch requests to the controller.
