This tool can now import extended trace information with the
--extended-trace command-line parameter. The existing importers cease
using artificial access_info_t objects in favor of passing through the
original Trace_Event wherever possible. This allows us to import
extended trace information for all importers.

It's OK if we cannot map every register LLVM knows to a Fail register
ID, but we need to explicitly skip these cases in the
RegisterImporter.

This change became necessary as we observed weird fail-client SIGSEGV
crashes with both Bochs and Gem5 backends and different experiments.
Some Fail* components are instantiated statically: the
SimulatorController instance "simulator", containing the
ListenerManager and the CoroutineManager, and the active
ExperimentFlow subclass(es)
(experiments/instantiate-experiment*.ah.in). The experiment(s) is
registered as an active flow in the CoroutineManager at startup.
As plugins (which are ExperimentFlows themselves) are often created on
an experiment's stack, ExperimentFlows deregister themselves on
destruction (e.g., when leaving the plugin variable's scope). The
core problem is, that the creation and destruction order of statically
instantiated objects depends on the link order; if the experiment is
destroyed after the CoroutineManager, its automatic self-deregistering
feature talks to the smoking ruins of the latter.
This change removes all static instantiations of ExperimentFlow and
replaces them with constructions on the heap. Additionally it makes
sure that the CoroutineManager recognizes that a shutdown is in
progress, and refrains from touching potentially already destroyed
data structures when a (mistakenly globally instantiated)
ExperimentFlow deregisters in this case.

Contemporary AspectC++ versions can deal with the LLVM headers very
well, and #ifdef __puma stuff in Fail* headers results in
unmaintainable #ifdef __puma blocks in other parts of Fail* (e.g., the
trace importer).
Make sure you're using a 64-bit ac++ when living in a 64-bit userland
(the 32-bit version doesn't know about __int128), and be aware that
AspectC++ r325 introduced a regression that has not been fixed yet.

For def/use pruning, the linear address mapping of the x86
sub-registers (e.g., AX represents the lower 16 bits of EAX) must
overlap. If it doesn't, e.g., AX and EAX are considered separate
registers by def/use pruning, resulting in a failure to correlate an
EAX def with a subsequent AX use.
The only user of this mapping up to now, RegisterImporter, forced all
register widths to 8 bits, thereby fortunately canceling out this
problem. Nevertheless it makes no sense to continue encoding a
constant width in these virtual addresses.
Existing trace, fspgroup, fsppilot and result tables may be converted
to the new encoding by using this query:
UPDATE <tablename> SET data_address = ((data_address >> 4) & ~0xf) | data_address & 0xf;

The extended trace register list is needed in multiple locations; the CPU

Increased number of x86 registers to be traced; we can remove those

The SConscript in src/core/sal/gem5 is now generated via CMake

${PLUGINS_ACTIVATED})
Generated SConscript now resides in binary dir.

The variant/benchmark selection now can use SQL LIKE syntax, all unfinished
pilots from all selected variants are sent to the clients. E.g.:
./cored-voter-server -v x86-cored-voter -b simple-% -p basic
Will select the fsppilots in the variants:
- x86-cored-voter/simple-ip/basic
- x86-cored-voter/simple-instr/basic
The variant and benchmark information is now sent within the
fsppilot.

The build system now allows incremental gem5 builds. Unfortunately,
the current solution always requires re-linking the executable.
Without the enforcement of re-linking, the fail code will be rebuilt
but not linked into gem5.
The number of cores for building gem5 is derived from /proc/cpuinfo.
As before, only the gem5.debug configuration is supported.

The client sends results back earlier (i.e., before all jobs are
done) if the client response time (CLIENT_JOB_REQUEST_SEC) is
exceeded. This makes sure that extraordinarily long-running
experiments get reported back before, e.g., the LIDO job timeout
kills the Fail* instance.

It is no longer required (and recommended) to write a dependency
check (using conditional compilation) in the experiment code. Instead,
the Fail code performs these checks itself. If an experiment is
compiled without having the required configuration flags set to
enabled, the compiler emits an error. This is because the constructors
of unused listener classes are declared as protected. (Note that
this works only because the Fail code does not create any listeners.)
In a next step, one should remove all the dependency guards in the
existing experiments (not needed anymore).

The previous fault injection experiment was kind of bullshit. This one
is better in several ways:
- sanity check at injection time (correct IP)
- correct counting of kernel_transistions
- copy whole activation scheme

This prevents client and server from being sent a SIGPIPE (and
terminating) when the other side unexpectedly closes the connection.
It's way easier to handle this condition when checking the write()
return value, than to do anything smart in a SIGPIPE handler. More
