misc: fix build failure in cxx_config example
Fix a missing header in the cxx_config example which is used as a simple example of using libgem5.so without python.

base: remove Trace::enabled flag
The DTRACE() macro tests both Trace::enabled and the specific flag. This change uses the same administrative interface for enabling/disabling tracing, but masks the SimpleFlags settings directly. This eliminates a load for every DTRACE() test, e.g. DPRINTF.

config: Fix checkpoint restore in C++ config example
This patch fixes the checkpoint restore option in the example of C++ configuration (util/cxx_config).
The fix introduces a call to config_manager->startup() (which calls startup on all SimObjects managed by that manager) to replicate the loop of SimObject::startup calls in src/python/m5/simulate.py::simulate guarded by need_startup. As util/cxx_config/main.cc is a C++ analogue of src/python/mt/simulate.py, it should make a similar set of calls.

config: Add the ability to read a config file using C++ and Python
This patch adds the ability to load in config.ini files generated from gem5 into another instance of gem5 built without Python configuration support. The intended use case is for configuring gem5 when it is a library embedded in another simulation system.
A parallel config file reader is also provided purely in Python to demonstrate the approach taken and to provided similar functionality for as-yet-unknown use models. The Python configuration file reader can read both .ini and .json files.
C++ configuration file reading:
A command line option has been added for scons to enable C++ configuration file reading: --with-cxx-config
There is an example in util/cxx_config that shows C++ configuration in action. util/cxx_config/README explains how to build the example.
Configuration is achieved by the object CxxConfigManager. It handles reading object descriptions from a CxxConfigFileBase object which wraps a config file reader. The wrapper class CxxIniFile is provided which wraps an IniFile for reading .ini files. Reading .json files from C++ would be possible with a similar wrapper and a JSON parser.
After reading object descriptions, CxxConfigManager creates SimObjectParam-derived objects from the classes in the (generated with this patch) directory build/ARCH/cxx_config
CxxConfigManager can then build SimObjects from those SimObjectParams (in an order dictated by the SimObject-value parameters on other objects) and bind ports of the produced SimObjects.
A minimal set of instantiate-replacing member functions are provided by CxxConfigManager and few of the member functions of SimObject (such as drain) are extended onto CxxConfigManager.
Python configuration file reading (configs/example/read_config.py):
A Python version of the reader is also supplied with a similar interface to CxxConfigFileBase (In Python: ConfigFile) to config file readers.
The Python config file reading will handle both .ini and .json files.
The object construction strategy is slightly different in Python from the C++ reader as you need to avoid objects prematurely becoming the children of other objects when setting parameters.
Port binding also needs to be strictly in the same port-index order as the original instantiation.
