By separating out this utility class, we make it possible to build
embedded python modules into other binarys without dragging along lots
of other, unrelated gem5 dependencies.
Also, move the class from sim/init.hh (which is a largely unrelated
name) to python/embedded.hh which much more directly describes what that
file contains.

It's really a part of the build system and not part of gem5, and so it
should probably live outside of the main tree. It would be confusing to
have a bunch of python scripts which don't end up inside gem5 alongside
a bunch of ones that do in src/python.
The directory is called build_tools instead of build so it doesn't get
confused with an actual build output directory.
