mem: Make PortProxy use a delegate for a sendFunctional function.

The only part of the MaserPort the PortProxy uses is the sendFunctional
function which is part of the functional protocol. Rather than require
a MasterPort which comes along with a lot of other mechanisms, this
change slightly adjusts the PortProxy to only require that function
through the use of a delegate. That allows lots of flexibility in how
the actual packet gets sent and what sends it.

In cases where code constructs a PortProxy and passes its constructor
an unbound MasterPort, the PortProxy will create a delegate to the
sendFunctional method on its own.

This should also make it easier for objects which don't have
traditional gem5 style ports, for instance systemc models, to implement
just the little bit of the protocol they need, rather than having to
stub out a whole port class, most of which will be ignored.

mem, arm: Replace the pointer type in PortProxy with void *.

The void * type is for pointers which point to an unknown type. We
should use that when handling anonymous buffers in the PortProxy
functions, instead of uint8_t * which points to bytes.

Importantly, C/C++ doesn't require you to do any casting to turn an
arbitrary pointer type into a void *. This will get rid of lots of
tedious, verbose casting throughout the code base.

mem, arm: Move some helper methods into the base PortProxy class.

These were originally in the SETranslatingPortProxy class, but they're
not specific to SE mode in any way and are an unnecessary divergence
between the SE and FS mode translating port proxies.

arm, mem: Move the SecurePortProxy subclass into it's own file.

The idea of a "secure" memory area/access is specific to ARM and
shouldn't be in the common mem directory, although it's built in to the
generic memory protocol at this point.

Regardless, it should minimially be in its own file like the virtual
and physical port proxy classes are.
