misc: Rename misc.(hh|cc) to logging.(hh|cc)

These files aren't a collection of miscellaneous stuff, they're the
definition of the Logger interface, and a few utility macros for
calling into that interface (panic, warn, etc.).

dev: Fix buffer length when unserializing an eth pkt

Changeset 11701 only serialized the useful portion of of an ethernet packets'
payload. However, the device models expect each ethernet packet to contain
a 16KB buffer, even if there is no data in it. This patch adds a 'bufLength'
field to EthPacketData so the original size of the packet buffer can always
be unserialized.

dev: Add 'simLength' parameter in EthPacketData
Currently, all the network devices create a 16K buffer for the 'data' field
in EthPacketData, and use 'length' to keep track of the size of the packet
in the buffer. This patch introduces the 'simLength' parameter to
EthPacketData, which is used to hold the effective length of the packet used
for all timing calulations in the simulator. Serialization is performed using
only the useful data in the packet ('length') and not necessarily the entire
original buffer.

dev: Distributed Ethernet link for distributed gem5 simulations

Distributed gem5 (abbreviated dist-gem5) is the result of the
convergence effort between multi-gem5 and pd-gem5 (from Univ. of
Wisconsin). It relies on the base multi-gem5 infrastructure for packet
forwarding, synchronisation and checkpointing but combines those with
the elaborated network switch model from pd-gem5.
