mem-cache: Add multi-prefetcher adaptor
This patch adds a meta-prefetcher that enables gem5's cache models to connect to multiple prefetchers. Sub-prefetchers still use the probes-based interface and training can be controlled independently. However, when the cache requests a prefetch packet, the adaptor traverses the priority list of prefetchers and uses the first prefetcher that is able to generate a prefetch.
Kudos to Mitch Hayenga for the original version of this patch.
