The Learning gem5 part 3 tests require the building of the X86_MSI
binary. These are the only tests that require this protocol. Building
this is not worth it to just run these tests. They've therefore been
moved to be run nightly rather than as a pre-submit/kokoro test.

This change makes three improvements:
1. It uses the gem5 components library
`config/example/components-library/boot_exit_disk_run.py` example. This
test therefore doubles-up as a test for this example and the gem5
components library, as well as full-system x86 booting of Linux.
2. It includes 'very-long' tests to be run weekly. These are a full
cross-product of x86 boot tests and will help identify gem5 failures
more quickly.
3. Quick tests are added to boot the linux OS to a certain tick.

This `requires` function allows a simple way to specify ISA, KVM, and
cache coherence protocol requirments within the library and scripts.
An exception will be thrown if the gem5 binary does not meet these
requirements.
The `requires` function may be expanded with other requirements as
needed. At present we only check ISA, KVM, and cache coherence
protocols.

Create an AllFlagsFlag class which inherits from the CompoundFlag class.
This class is a singleton, and the SimpleFlags install themselves in it
instead of having SCons collect them.
The allFlagsVersion global variable was supposed to be for debugging
according to a comment, but was actually an important part of the "All"
flags inner workings. It was not exposed in the header, but was
redefined/pulled through in src/python/pybind11/debug.cc. The
AllFlagsFlag class now tracks that value, and it can be accessed without
reaching behind the curtain.
This also somewhat decentralizes the debug flag building process in
SCons. The debug/flags.cc still includes all flags at once which
centralizes them, but at least now the "All" flag won't also.

X86 had a private/arch specific request flag called StoreCheck which it
used to signal to the TLB that it should fault on a load if it would
have faulted had it been a store. That way, you can detect whether a
read-modify-write type of operation is going to fail due to a
translation problem during the read, and don't have to worry about not
doing anything architecturally visible until the store had succeeded,
while also making sure not to do the store part if the modify part
could fail.
It seems that Ruby had hijacked that flag and had an architecture
specific check which was looking for a load which was going to be
followed by a store. The x86 flag was never intended to communicate that
beyond the TLB, and this nominally architecture agnostic component
shouldn't be reaching into the ISA specific flags to try to get that
information.
Instead, this change introduces a new Request flag called
READ_MODIFY_WRITE which is used for the same purpose in x86, but in
general means that a load will be followed by a write in the near
future.
With this new globally applicable flag, the ruby Sequencer class no
longer needs to check what the arch is, nor does it need to access ISA
private data in the request flags. Always doing this check should be no
less efficient than before, because checking the arch involved calling
into the system object, while checking the flag only requires masking a
bit on the flags which the compiler probably already has floating around
for other logic in this function.

This avoids having to explicitly list the types that the result can
hold, avoiding having to specify what the vector types are. Also, the
variant type always has enough space for the result no matter what type
it is. For the "any" type, implementations are encouraged to not
dynamically allocate storage for small values (and RegVal == uint64_t
probably qualifies). This means that for the common case, RegVal, the
amount of storage will be smaller, and only when we actually need space
to store a VecRegContainer, etc, will that actually be allocated.

In a few places, the makeSP helper function was being called on a fixed
register index, INTREG_SPX. That method would always return INTREG_SPX,
so this call was pointless.
Similarly, there were calls to makeZero on the fixed index INTREG_X31
which would return INTREG_ZERO.
It's not clear what the intention of this code was, so this change
simply removes the pointless calls, and makes it clearer what value is
actually being used by the instructions.

a gem5 Port, receive the signal, and transfer to fastmodel.

Suppress any valgrind error from *anywhere* in the libpython library.
There are ***many*** false positives in the python library, making the
output of valgrind almost useless without lots of suppressions. Rather
than suppress each error piecemeal, we can suppress any error which
originates in libpython to cover them all.
There will now be corner cases where a bug in gem5 causes some sort of
illegal access, etc, within the python library itself, but these sorts
of interactions/errors should be very rare. Suppressing the fountain of
false positives coming from libpython makes valgrind useable in general,
which IMO is a very worthwhile tradeoff.

This register index was for an integer register which was just something
to return when the result should be thrown away. That's basically what
the zero register is/could already be used for. Replace INTREG_DUMMY
with INTREG_ZERO.
Also, change the type used for an index in SVE memory instructions from
IntRegIndex to RegIndex, since it's not actually storing an integer
register index, and g++ gets upset when you try to compare one against a
value which is out of range for that enum.

Don't cache the first version requested of object files to use for
subsequent requests. This was originally put in place to avoid an error
when object files could be built with trivially different command lines,
ie command lines which are technically different but not in a
necessarily meaningful way, or less seriously a warning when the command
lines were the same.
The warning was disabled in an earlier change, and the error was avoided
by using a different object file suffix when building unit tests.
This helps avoid bugs if the object files actually *would* turn out to
be different in a meaningful way based on the flags used, and simplifies
the build.

The systemc headers are supposed to be hermetic, so that they can be
included from generic systemc code without any dependency on the gem5
code base, at least when the systemc components are compiled, outside
of those header files themselves. It should be possible to copy the
"ext" directory out of the tree and make it available to systemc code,
and that code should be compileable.
