misc: Rename misc.(hh|cc) to logging.(hh|cc)

These files aren't a collection of miscellaneous stuff, they're the
definition of the Logger interface, and a few utility macros for
calling into that interface (panic, warn, etc.).

pwr: Enable multiple power models per component

This patch allows the user to specify more than one
power model for any given Clocked Object. This is
useful and some times necessary to properly model
components that have multiple power sources (or
subcomponents) but gem5 doesn't model them.

The ideal solution would be to have a DictParam
to replace the VectorParam so each model can have
a name and can be identified in the stats file.

sim: Updated ClockedObject power state warning

To prevent this warning from printing for *every* simulation, this patch
adds a check to only print the warning if we are not at the beginning of
simulation.

sim: Only print the power state transition warning once

A lot of objects seem to request no-op power transitions which
currently results in large amounts of warnings. These warnings are
benign and risk hiding more serious warnings. Make the warning a
warn_once to prevent console flooding.

sim: Adding support for power models

This patch adds some basic support for power models in gem5.

The power interface is defined so it can interact with thermal
models as well. It implements a simple power evaluator that
can be used for simple power models that express power in the
form of a math expression. These expressions can use stats
within the same SimObject (or down its hierarchy) and some
magic variables such as "temp" for temperature.
In future patches we will extend this functionality to allow
slightly more complex expressions.

The model allows it to be extended to use other kinds of models.

stats: Silence unused power stats

The power stats are currently very noisy even if no power model has
been loaded. Silence stats that are either zero or nan.

pwr: 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.

Finally, the thermal model is updated to use the power usage as input.
