These are currently specific to aarch64, but will be expanded to cover
all other versions of the utility as well.
The intention of these new files is to centralize the build mechanism
for the different versions of the utility so that they have consistent
features, mechanisms, and targets, and so that new features will
automatically be shared by all versions without having to be implemented
in each.
This also sets up a separate build directory which will keep the source
tree clean, and will (with some more development) make it possible to
build multiple versions of the m5 utility at the same time without them
running into each other.

When accessing m5_mem and building PIC code, we need to get the address
of m5_mem out of the global offset table, and then load the value from
there. If we try to load from m5_mem directly, the assembled code has a
relocation type the linker can't handle when building a shared object.

The header for the m5op entry points had moved. Also the names of the
entry points had been normalized to have a consistent structure. Neither
of those changes were ported to this file, making it no longer compile.
