DRAM: Introduce SimpleDRAM to capture a high-level controller
This patch introduces a high-level model of a DRAM controller, with a basic read/write buffer structure, a selectable and customisable arbiter, a few address mapping options, and the basic DRAM timing constraints. The parameters make it possible to turn this model into any desired DDRx/LPDDRx/WideIOx memory controller. The intention is not to be cycle accurate or capture every aspect of a DDR DRAM interface, but rather to enable exploring of the high-level knobs with a good simulation speed. Thus, contrary to e.g. DRAMSim this module emphasizes simulation speed with a good-enough accuracy. This module is merely a starting point, and there are plenty additions and improvements to come. A notable addition is the support for address-striping in the bus to enable a multi-channel DRAM controller. Also note that there are still a few "todo's" in the code base that will be addressed as we go along. A follow-up patch will add basic performance regressions that use the traffic generator to exercise a few well-defined corner cases.
