stats: Fix incorrect name conflict panic with grouped stats

Info::setName() performs a sanity check to ensure that the same stat
name isn't used twice. This doesn't work for new-style stats with a
parent group since the name is only unique within the group. Disable
the check for new-style stats since these usually use names generated
from member variable names.

stats: Add support for hierarchical stats

This change makes the stat system aware of the hierarchical nature of
stats. The aim is to achieve the following goals:

* Make the SimObject hierarchy explicit in the stat system (i.e.,
get rid of name() + ".foo"). This makes stat naming less fragile
and makes it possible to implement hierarchical formats like
XML/HDF5/JSON in a clean way.

* Make it more convenient to split stats into a separate
struct/class that can be bound to a SimObject. This makes the
namespace cleaner and makes stat accesses a bit more obvious.

* Make it possible to build groups of stats in C++ that can be used
in subcomponents in a SimObject (similar to what we do for
checkpoint sections). This makes it easier to structure large
components.

* Enable partial stat dumps. Some of our internal users have been
asking for this since a full stat dump can be large.

* Enable better stat access from Python.

This changeset implements solves the first three points by introducing
a class (Stats::Group) that owns statistics belonging to the same
object. SimObjects inherit from Stats::Group since they typically have
statistics.

New-style statistics need to be associated with a parent group at
instantiation time. Instantiation typically sets the name and the
description, other parameters need to be set by overriding
Group::regStats() just like with legacy stats. Simple objects with
scalar stats can typically avoid implementing regStats() altogether
since the stat name and description are both specified in the
constructor.

For convenience reasons, statistics groups can be merged into other
groups. This means that a SimObject can create a stat struct that
inherits from Stats::Group and merge it into the parent group
(SimObject). This can make the code cleaner since statistics tracking
gets grouped into a single object.

Stat visitors have a new API to expose the group structure. The
Output::beginGroup(name) method is called at the beginning of a group
and the Output::endGroup() method is called when all stats, and
sub-groups, have been visited. Flat formats (e.g., the text format)
typically need to maintain a stack to track the full path to a stat.

Legacy, flat, statistics are still supported after applying this
change. These stats don't belong to any group and stat visitors will
not see a Output::beginGroup(name) call before their corresponding
Output::visit() methods are called.

stats: Add more information to uninitialized error

ClockedObject was changed to require its regStats() to be called from every
child class. If you forget to do this, the error was indecipherable. This
patch makes the error more clear.

Revamped version of garnet with more optimized single-cycle routers,

base: Fix for stats node on gcc < 4.6.3

This patch adds an explicit function to get the underlying node as gcc
4.6.1 and 4.6.2 have issues otherwise.

config: Add a --without-python option to build process

Add the ability to build libgem5 without embedded Python or the
ability to configure with Python.

This is a prelude to a patch to allow config.ini files to be loaded
into libgem5 using only C++ which would make embedding gem5 within
other simulation systems easier.

This adds a few registration interfaces to things which cross
between Python and C++. Namely: stats dumping and SimObject resolving

stats: add function for adding two histograms
This patch adds a function to the HistStor class for adding two histograms.
This functionality is required for Ruby. It also adds support for printing
histograms in a single line.

stats: adds a Formula operator for division

scons: Add warning for missing declarations

This patch enables warnings for missing declarations. To avoid issues
with SWIG-generated code, the warning is only applied to non-SWIG
code.

stats: Provide a mechanism to get a callback when stats are dumped.

This mechanism is useful for dumping output that is correlated with stats
dumping, but isn't tracked by the gem5 statistics.

stats: track if the stats have been enabled and prevent requesting master id

Track the point in the initialization where statistics have been registered.
After this point registering new masterIds can no longer work as some
SimObjects may have sized stats vectors based on the previous value. If someone
tries to register a masterId after this point the simulator executes fatal().

stats: move code that loops over all stats into python

stats: ensure that stat names are valid

stats: add user settable separator string for arrayed stats

Default is '::', so no visible change unless it is overridden

debug: create a Debug namespace

includes: sort all includes

stats: Add a histogram statistic type

Make commenting on close namespace brackets consistent.

Ran all the source files through 'perl -pi' with this script:

s|\s*(};?\s*)?/\*\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*\*/(\s*})?|} // namespace $3|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(end\s*)?namespace\s*(\S+)\s*|} // namespace $2\n|;
s|\s*};?\s*//\s*(\S+)\s*namespace\s*|} // namespace $1\n|;

Also did a little manual editing on some of the arch/*/isa_traits.hh files
and src/SConscript.

stats: rename print to display so it work in python

stats: only consider a formula initialized if there is a formula

types: clean up types, especially signed vs unsigned

stats: Move flags into info.hh and use base/flags.hh to manage the flags

stats: Rename the info classes to hopefully make things a bit clearer
FooInfoBase became FooInfo
FooInfo became FooInfoProxy

stats: disallow duplicate statistic names.

stats: create an enable phase, and a prepare phase.
Enable more or less takes the place of check, but also allows stats to
do some other configuration. Prepare moves all of the code that readies
a stat for dumping into a separate function in preparation for supporting
serialization of certain pieces of statistics data.
While we're at it, clean up the visitor code and some of the python code.

stats: clean up how templates are used on the data side.
This basically works by taking advantage of the curiously recurring template
pattern in an intelligent way so as to reduce the number of lines of code
and hopefully make things a little bit clearer.

stats: reorganize how parameters are stored and accessed.

stats: get rid of the convoluted 'database' code.
Just use the stuff directly and things ought to be more clear

stats: Try to make the names of things more intuitive.
Basically, this means renaming several things called data to info, which
is information about the statistics. Things that are named data now are
actual data stored for the statistic.

stats: use properly signed types for looping and comparison
