When calling a method in a superclass, you can/should use the super()
method to get a reference to that class. The python 2 version of that
method takes two parameters, the current class name, and the "self"
instance. The python 3 version takes no arguments. This is better for a
at least three reasons.
First, this version is less verbose because you don't have to specify
any arguments.
Second, you don't have to remember which argument goes where (I always
have to look it up), and you can't accidentally use the wrong class
name, or forget to update it if you copy code from a different class.
Third, this version will work correctly if you use a class decorator.
I don't know exactly how the mechanics of this work, but it is referred
to in a comment on this stackoverflow question:

This change adds three functions, a `children` function which will
iterate through all of the children of group based (optionally) on some
predicate. Then, it implements a `find` function and a `find_re`
function using the `children` function.
The `find` function allows users to match statistics or groups
within a group. For instance, you might want to find all of the groups
within the system which have the name "cpu{i}". This is useful for
aggregate statistic values across multiple components.
Example:
total_instruuctions = sum([cpu.exec_context.thread_0.numInsts.value
for cpu in simstat.system.find('cpu')])
The find function matches based on substring. If the name given the find
function is a substring of the stat name or the group name the
stat/group will be returned.
The `find_re` function is the same as find, but matches a regular
expression instead of a simple substring match.
Note: this was originally reviewed on
https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/41603 was rebased
incorrectly before merging. This change fixes the rebase and adds back
the children() and re_find() functions.

This model is used to store and represent the "new" hierarchical stats
at the Python level. Over time these classes may be extended with
functions to ease in the analysis of gem5 stats. Though, for this
commit, such functions have been kept to a minimum.
`m5/pystats/loader.py` contains functions for translating the gem5 `_m5.stats`
statistics exposed via Pybind11 to the Python Stats model. For example:
```
import m5.pystats.gem5stats as gem5stats
simstat = gem5stats.get_simstat(root)
```
All the python Stats model classes inherit from JsonSerializable meaning
they can be translated to JSON. For example:
```
import m5.pystats.gem5stats as gem5stats
simstat = gem5stats.get_simstat(root)
with open('test.json', 'w') as f:
simstat.dump(f)
```
The stats have also been exposed via the python statistics API. Via
command line, a JSON output may be specified with the argument
`--stats-file json://<file path>`.
