Add an "All" compound debug flag, which encapsulates all
debug flags.
Since this is the broadest compound flag, allowing users
to include it would imply in extremely generic includes.
Moreover, it is highly unlikely that any correct C++ code
would ever use all debug flags. Therefore, a header file
for this flag is not generated to force users to directly
include only the debug flags they need.

Debug flags are flags that aid with debugging by printing
relevant information when enabled. Debug-formatting flags
define how the debug flags will print the information.
Although a viability, this patch does not support declaring
compound format flags.
As a side effect, now debug flags and debug-formatting flags
are printed in different lists, when using --debug-help.

The debug flags API has a couple of quirks that should be cleaned
up. Specifically:
* Only CompoundFlag should expose a list of children.
* The global enable flag is just called "active", this isn't very
descriptive.
* Only SimpleFlag exposed a status member. This should be in the base
class to make the API symmetric.
* Flag::Sync() is an implementation detail and needs to be protected.

Python 3 has removed support for DictMixin, so switch to Mapping /
MutableMapping in collections which provides the same functionality.

Starting with version 3, scons imposes using the print function instead
of the print statement in code it processes. To get things building
again, this change moves all python code within gem5 to use the
function version. Another change by another author separately made this
same change to the site_tools and site_init.py files.

The PyBind11 changes slightly modified gem5's internal debug
interfaces. The corresponding change to the public API went missing
before the new bindings were merged. This change updates the Python
glue to use the new interface.

Swig wrappers for native objects currently share the _m5.internal name
space with Python code. This is undesirable if we ever want to switch
from Swig to some other framework for native binding (e.g., PyBind11
or Boost::Python). This changeset moves all of such wrappers to the
_m5 namespace, which is now reserved for native code.

This patch changes the name the command-line options related to debug
output to all start with "debug" rather than being a mix of that and
"trace". It also makes it clear that the breakpoint time is specified
in ticks and not in cycles.
At the same time, rename the trace flags to debug flags since they
have broader usage than simply tracing. This means that
--trace-flags is now --debug-flags and --trace-help is now --debug-help
