This patch changes the default 1 Tick clock period to a proxy that resolves the parents clock. As a result of this, the caches and L1-to-L2 bus, for example, will automatically use the clock period of the CPU unless explicitly overridden. To ensure backwards compatibility, the System class overrides the proxy and specifies a 1 Tick clock. We could change this to something more reasonable in a follow-on patch, perhaps 1 GHz or something similar. With this patch applied, all clocked objects should have a reasonable clock period set, and could start specifying delays in Cycles instead of absolute time.
