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.

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: Add a sparse histogram stat object.

stats: move code that loops over all stats into python

includes: sort all includes

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: get rid of the never-really-used event stuff

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

stats: remove simplescalar compatibility for printing

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.

Fix majory brokenness in my previous MySQL commit, basically
this is just a shuffling around of code and fixes to make
stuff commit properly

Get rid of the Statistics and Statreset ParamContexts, and
expose all of the relevant functionality to python. Clean
up the mysql code while we're at it.

Updated Authors from bk prs info

New directory structure:
- simulator source now in 'src' subdirectory
- imported files from 'ext' repository
- support building in arbitrary places, including
outside of the source tree. See comment at top
of SConstruct file for more details.
Regression tests are temporarily disabled; that
syetem needs more extensive revisions.

SConstruct:
Update for new directory structure.
Modify to support build trees that are not subdirectories
of the source tree. See comment at top of file for
more details.
Regression tests are temporarily disabled.
