H A Dpacket.cc12652:bae1a1865204 Tue Mar 06 10:36:00 EST 2018 Andreas Sandberg <andreas.sandberg@arm.com> mem: Add a helper function to get a word of variable length

There are many devices that need to handle reads/writes of different
word sizes. A common pattern is a switch statement that check for the
size of a packet and then calls the corresponding
Packet::(get|set)<uintXX_t> methods. Simplify this by implementing
Packet::(get|set)UintX helper functions.

The getter reads a word of the size specified in the packet and the
specified endianness. The word is then zero-extended to 64
bits. Conversely, the setter truncates the word down to the size
required in the packet and then byte-swaps it to the desired
endianness.
