The SPEC2006 and SPEC2017 example configs require the passing of SPEC
disk image to function correctly. Prior to this commit a root partition
parameter was required. However, disk images don't necessarily have
partitions. In this case an empty string needed passed.
This patch makes the root partition parameter optional. If a disk image
does not have a root partition, it does not need specified.

This CustomResource can be used to specify a custom, local disk image.
It allows the user to specify the disk root partition parameter
considerably easier than when setting a disk image through a
CustomResource.

This change removes the code base for SingleChannelMemory and
replaces it with MultiChannelMemory. muli_channel defines all
the classes that were defined by single_channel. Basically any
SingleChannelMemory could be thought of as a MultiChannelMemory
with 1 channel.

This enables an SE mode execution of binary if added a Board's
superclass.
This has been abstracted from the SimpleBoard.
The 'set_workload' function has been renamed 'set_se_binary_workload'.
This is clearer on its purpose and doesn't overlap with other
'set_workload' functions.

This patch moves 'connect_things' to the AbstractBoard constructor,
thereby meaning it does not need to be called directly in gem5
configuration scripts. This method has been changed to private as a
result.
As boards that inherit from AbstractBoard require certain things to be
setup prior to `connect_things` being called, a new abstract function,
`_setup_board` has been created. This is called in the AbstractBoard
constructor before `connect_things` and can be overridden by boards to
setup board properties as required.

The override parameter in the constructor has been renamed to to
'download_md5_mismatch'. This makes the purpose of this parameter
clearer.
The default value has been changed from False to True. We found in most
cases we want to re-download files if the md5 values have changes. Not
wanting to do so is the corner case. This allows us to remove a lot of
parameters from test and example scripts, included in this patch.

The purpose of this class is to:
* Create a standard way to set a typical kernel/disk image workload.
* Cleans up the manner in which readfile values/contents are set.
* Allows a user to specify their own kernel arguments, but still sets
sensible defaults.
As of this commit, this interface has been added to the X86Board and the
RISCVBoard.
