While the PcCountTracker isn't necessary in the NULL ISA, the
structure of the standard library requires us to have it built
when running the replacement policy tests, which should fix
these tests failing within the nightlies at the moment.

This piggy-backs on the writeOK method which already exists. It also
modifies the flags returned as part of the memory's backdoor
descriptor which doesn't enforce that the memory is read only, but will
let the other party know it's expected not to write to it.

This change refactors the Looppoint files. While functionally
equivalent, this classes have been moved and altered to be easier to
handle going forward. The following changes have been made:
- New classes have been added to represent the data structure of the
Looppoint JSON. This simplifies the parsing of JSON files and makes it
handle Looppoint data structures. Ultimately this is hidden from the
user via the new 'gem5.resources.Looppoint' class which will be the
front-facing class for Looppoint interactions.
- The `LooppointCheckpoint` class has been replaced with
`LooppointCsvLoader`. This new class takes in a CSV pintpoints file
to load necessary looppoint data.
- The `LoopPointRestore` class has been replaced by
`LooppointJsonLoader`.
- All Looppoint classes have been moved to `gem5.resources`. This will
make it easier when we add Looppoints as specific gem5 resources.

LoopPoint is a multithreaded workload sampling method that targets
PCs and PC execution counts.
The main idea for LoopPoint is to base the beginning and end of the
simjulation sample on the number of times a particular loop (PC) has
been executed globally across all threads in a region that partitioned
with a set length of instruction counts. This in some senses
generalizes SimPoint which use the instruction count of a single
thread.

The LoopPointCheckpoint is designed to take in LoopPoint data file
and generate the information needed to take checkpoints for LoopPoint
regions(warmup regions+simulation region)
The LoopPointRestore is designed to take in the LoopPOint data file
and generate information needed to to restore a checkpoint taken by
the LoopPOintCheckpoint.
The LoopPoint is the parent class for LoopPointCheckpoint and
LoopPointRestore.

PcCountTracker is a probelistener that connects to one core and listens
for a list of Program Counter addresses(PCs). It notifys the
PcCountTrackerManager every time it encounters a Program Counter
address in the list.
PcCountTrackerManager is a SimObject that is responsible for keeping
track of a list of PC-count pairs and the number of time a particular
PC has been executed globally.
This patch adds a way to track the number of times a set of specific
PCs have been executed.

This patches does the following:
- Adds 'SimpointResource' which encapsulates Simpoint data and
functionality. It replaces the old 'gem5.util.simpoint.SimPoint'
class. Simpoints can be loaded from gem5-resources using the
`obtain_resource` function.
- Adds 'SimpointDirectoryResource'. This inherits form
'SimpointResource'. While 'SimpointResource' takes raw Simpoint data
via parameters, 'SimpointDirectoryResource' assumes the data exists
in files, in a directory.
- Updates the
"configs/example/gem5_library/checkpoints/simpoints-se-checkpoint.py"
and
"configs/example/gem5_library/checkpoints/simpoints-se-restory.py"
example files to utilize this new Simpoint resource classes.
**Note**: While the old "SimPoint" class
("src/python/gem5/util/simpoint.py") is marked as deprecated, it may be
difficult to utilize given updates to the APIs in the gem5 stdlib Cores
and Simulator modules.

be `null` (translated to `None` in the Python JSON package) or not
declared. In this case the resources.json file will be used regardless
as to what version the gem5 binary is set. This is useful for testing
purposes.
Tests have been updated to utilize this where possible.

This commit specializes the Resource class into specific sub-types.
The `Resource`, `CustomResource` and `CustomDiskImageResource` classes
have been deprecated in favor of the `AbstractResource` subclasses.
Custom Resources can be created via the resource specialization
constructor. Resources can be obtained via the gem5-resource
infrastructure with the `obtain_resource` function.
Fully implemented:
- DiskImageResource
- BinaryResource
- KernelResource
- BootloaderResource
- FileResource
- DirectoryResource
Partially implemented:
- SimpointResource
- CheckpointResource
While the schema of the resource.json file has changed, efforts have
been made to ensure backwards compatibility is maintained during this
transition.
Tests are included in this commit to verify this feature works as
expected.
**Note:** The Simpoint tests are disabled in this commit, to be
reenabled when Simpoint resource specialization is fully incorporated

This import is necessary but also causes problems when scons calls

unavalailable resulting in an ImportError. This is bening and we can

According to RISC V spec Volumn I, Section 11.1, the CSR will be
written only if RS1 != 0 or imm != 0. However, after the change
of CL(https://gem5-review.googlesource.com/c/public/gem5/+/67717),
it will cause IllegalInstFault to write status CSR if we don't
change the data.
Example of Instruction Fault for mstatus
```
addi a5, zero, 8
csrc mstatus, a5
```
It will cause instruction fault if mstatus value is 0 due to
"newdata_all == olddata_all". We can just simply check if
the data value is changed out of mask.

standard way to assign the initial value and default value at the same

reg.get().field1 = val1;
reg.get().field2 = val2;
reg.resetInitialValue();
