x86: Stop using/defining some ISA specific register types.

These have been replaced with the generic RegVal type.

syscall_emul: [PATCH 15/22] add clone/execve for threading and multiprocess simulations

Modifies the clone system call and adds execve system call. Requires allowing
processes to steal thread contexts from other processes in the same system
object and the ability to detach pieces of process state (such as MemState)
to allow dynamic sharing.

syscall_emul: [patch 5/22] remove LiveProcess class and use Process instead

The EIOProcess class was removed recently and it was the only other class
which derived from Process. Since every Process invocation is also a
LiveProcess invocation, it makes sense to simplify the organization by
combining the fields from LiveProcess into Process.

x86: Fixes to avoid LTO warnings

This patch fixes a few minor issues that caused link-time warnings
when using LTO, mainly for x86. The most important change is how the
syscall array is created. Previously gcc and clang would complain that
the declaration and definition types did not match. The organisation
is now changed to match how it is done for ARM, moving the code that
was previously in syscalls.cc into process.cc, and having a class
variable pointing to the static array.

With these changes, there are no longer any warnings using gcc 4.6.3
with LTO.

# 4166:ecebe3ac19b4 06-Mar-2007 Gabe Black <gblack@eecs.umich.edu>

Get X86 to load an elf and start a process for it.

src/arch/x86/SConscript:
Add in process source files.
src/arch/x86/isa_traits.hh:
Replace magic constant numbers with the x86 register names.
src/arch/x86/miscregfile.cc:
Make clear the miscreg file succeed. There aren't any misc regs, so clearing them is very easy.
src/arch/x86/process.hh:
An X86 process class.
src/base/loader/elf_object.cc:
Add in code to recognize x86 as an architecture.
src/base/traceflags.py:
Add an x86 traceflag
src/sim/process.cc:
Add in code to create an x86 process.
src/arch/x86/intregs.hh:
A file which declares names for the integer register indices.
src/arch/x86/linux/linux.cc:
src/arch/x86/linux/linux.hh:
A very simple translation of SPARC's linux.cc and linux.hh. It's probably not correct for x86, but it might not be correct for SPARC either.
src/arch/x86/linux/process.cc:
src/arch/x86/linux/process.hh:
An x86 linux process. The syscall table is split out into it's own file.
src/arch/x86/linux/syscalls.cc:
The x86 Linux syscall table and the uname function.
src/arch/x86/process.cc:
The x86 process base class.
tests/test-progs/hello/bin/x86/linux/hello:
An x86 hello world test binary.
