Python 2.7 used to return lists for operations such as map and range,
this has changed in Python 3. To make the configs Python 3 compliant,
add explicit conversions from iterators to lists where needed, replace
xrange with range, and fix changes to exec syntax.
This change doesn't fix import paths since that might require us to
restructure the configs slightly.

These functions were already being treated as psuedo objects and had
properties assigned to them setting what their paths were. That's a bit
unusual and made it less obvious what the code was doing, but also
forced the "system" function to know what all the possible path
searching functions were so that they'd have their "path" property
initialized properly in a central location.
This change introduces a PathSearcFunc class which encapsulates the
mechanisms of the old code and makes it implicitly extensible so that
other path searching functions which might look in other directories
can be added in other places.

Although you can put a list of colon-separated directory names
in M5_PATH, the current code just takes the first one that
exists and assumes all files must live there. This change
makes the code search the specified list of directories
for each individual binary or disk image that's requested.
The main motivation is that the x86/Alpha binaries and the
ARM binaries are in separate downloads, and thus naturally
end up in separate directories. With this change, you can
have M5_PATH point to those two directories, then run any
FS regression test without changing M5_PATH. Currently,
you either have to merge the two download directories
or change M5_PATH (or do something else I haven't figured out).
