sim: Adding thermal model support

This patch adds basic thermal support to gem5. It models energy dissipation
through a circuital equivalent, which allows us to use RC networks.
This lays down the basic infrastructure to do so, but it does not "work" due
to the lack of power models. For now some hardcoded number is used as a PoC.
The solver is embedded in the patch.
