This update modifies the test configuration to specify the versions of
resources used, rather than automatically using the latest versions.
Previously, if a resource was updated for a change, it could potentially
cause tests to fail if those tests were incompatible with the new
version of the resource.
Now, with this change, tests are tied to specific versions of resources,
ensuring that any updates to resources will require corresponding
updates to the tests to maintain compatibility.

By default, the --stderr-file and --stdout-file arguments were
directing the simulator output to files named "simerr" and
"simout" respectively if an output redirect was requested.
A small annoyance is these files lack an extension meaning programs
refuse to open them, or to do so without some additional effort. On
many systems they are assumed to scripts.
This patch adds the .txt extension to both, thus clearly indicating
to other programs these are text files and can be opened to be read
as such.

In this case the function is turned into a generator with the
"yield" of the generator the return the function's execution.

This changeset reorganizes the testing directory within gem5,
removing the bigger config folders, then replacing them with
smaller configs folders within each directory containing only
the scripts necessary for that set of tests. It also changes
the locations of the config scripts used in each set of tests,
and updates the tests accordingly.

This change adds READMEs to each directory within tests/gem5,
with a short description of the test, as well as how to run it.

The only tests requiring the the compilation of SPARC, MIPS, and POWER
for the long/nightly suite were
"tests/gem5/multi_isa/test_multi_isa.py" and
"gem5/stdlib/test_requires.py". As compilation of gem5 is quite costly,
it'd best we simply remove these tests. They are minor and not very
important.
Compilation of these ISAs will continue to be tested via the compilation
tests.

The BaseCPUProcessor is processor containing BaseCPUCores. This gives
gem5 stdlib users a way to create processors containing BaseCPU
SimObjects. While SimpleProcessor does this by-proxy (the user simply
specifies the desires CPUType and ISA and the correct BaseCPU
instantiation is chosen), this new Processor allows a more raw passing
of BaseCPU objects.
The SimpleProcessor now inherrits from this BaseCPUProcessor to avoid
duplcation of functionality. A refactor to achieve this was moving the
setting of the board's memory mode from the SimpleProcessor's
"incorporate_processor" function to the BaseCPUProcessor's then altering
it to determine MemMode based on BaseCPU subclass rather than the
CPUType.
The tests/gem5/configs/simple_binary_run.py test script has been
extended to create an stdlib run with a BaseCPUProcessor instead of the
SimpleProcessor and tests have been included to ensure the
BaseCPUProcessor functions as intended.
Multiple cores comprising of different BaseCPU types has not been tested
and is not officially supported as of this commit.
