stdlib,python: Allow setting of to tick exits via m5

This commit adds the following functions to the `m5` python module:

- setMaxTick(tick) -> None
- getMaxTick() -> int
- getTicksUntilMax() -> int
- scheduleTickExitFromCurrent(tick, exit_string) -> None
- scheduleTickExitAbsolute(tick, exit_string) -> None

Until this patch the only way to set an exit at a particular tick was
via `simulate.run` which would reschedule the maximum tick. This
functionality has been explicity exposed via the new `setMaxTick`
function. However, as this is only rescheduling the maximum tick, it
stops scheduling exits at multiple different ticks.

To get around this problem the `scheduleTickExit` functions have been
added. These allow a user to schedule multiple exit events. The
functions contain a `exit_string` parameter that provides the string
the simulator is to return when the specified tick is met. By default
this string is "Tick exit reached" which is used by the stdlib
Simulator module to declare a new `SCHEDULED_TICK` exit event (Note:
this has been deliberatly kept seperate from the `MAX_TICK` exit event.
This commit serves as an attempt to decouple these are two concepts).

Tests are provided in this patch to ensure these new functions work as
intended.

Additional notes:
- The `simulate` function has been fixed to match the documentation. If
  the `num_cycles` is -1 then the maximum ticks is set to MaxTicks.
  Otherwise the max ticks is set to `curTicks() + num_cycles`. The
  functionality of this function will remain unchanged to the end-user.
- Full integration into the Simulator module is not complete as of this
  patch. Users must us the m5 python module to set these exit events.
