ruby: Fix garnet's round robin arbitration for vc selection

Garnet utilizes round robin policy to select a VC for
transmission ar Network Interface and Routers. The current logic
for round robin is only fair if all the virtual networks are active
at a given router. If the router or network interface is not
receiving traffic in from any vnet then the priority is always taken
up by the next vnet in numerically (or loops back to 0).

This fix changes the way we perform round robin arbitration. When
a VC is selected in a cycle, the round robin pointer is set to the VC
next to it and is iterated from there on. If any VC does not have a
flit in a given cycle, it will lose its turn until the next round.
At maximum traffic this will model round robin correctly even if
a certain VNET is not active at that unit.

python: Don't assume SimObjects live in the global namespace

The importer in Python 3 doesn't like the way we import SimObjects
from the global namespace. Convert the existing SimObject declarations
to import from m5.objects. As a side-effect, this makes these files
consistent with configuration files.

arch, base, cpu, gpu, mem: Replace assert(0 or false with panic.

Neither assert(0) nor assert(false) give any hint as to why control
getting to them is bad, and their more descriptive versions,
assert(0 && "description") and assert(false && "description"), jury
rig assert to add an error message when the utility function panic()
already does that directly with better formatting options.

This change replaces that flavor of call to assert with panic, except
in the actual code which processes the formatting that panic uses (to
avoid infinitely recurring error handling), and in some *.sm files
since I don't know what rules those have to follow and don't want to
accidentaly break them.

ruby: fix round robin arbiter in garnet2.0
The rr arbiter pointer in garnet was getting updated on every request,
even if there is no grant. This was leading to a huge variance in wait
time at a router at high injection rates.
This patch corrects it to update upon a grant.

ruby: Check MessageBuffer space in garnet NetworkInterface

Garnet's NetworkInterface does not consider the size of MessageBuffers when
ejecting a Message from the network. Add a size check for the MessageBuffer
and only enqueue if space is available. If space is not available, the
message if placed in a queue and the credit is held. A callback from the
MessageBuffer is implemented to wake the NetworkInterface. If there are
messages in the stalled queue, they are processed first, in a FIFO manner
and if succesfully ejected, the credit is finally sent back upstream. The
maximum size of the stall queue is equal to the number of valid VNETs
with MessageBuffers attached.

ruby: Check all VNETs for injection in garnet NetworkInterface

The NetworkInterface wakeup currently iterates over all VNETs and breaks the
loop if a VNET is unable to allocate a VC. This can cause a deadlock if a
lower numbered VNET is unable to allocate a VC while a higher numbered VNET
has idle VCs. This seems like a bug as Garnet 1.0 uses a while loop over an
if-statement, suggesting the break was intended for this while loop. This
patch removes the break statement, which allows up to one message to be
dequeued from a VNET and injected into the network.

ruby: Detect garnet network-level deadlock.

This patch detects garnet network deadlock by monitoring
