4cc86b1e56 Revert more changes to buffer speculative training, as previous 
buffering of training from execute should be sufficient for the BTB as
well.

696f546ecb Version using searchableSpecFifo in BTB with actual searching, but 
without killing speculative elements yet. This one is full performance
in CoreMark.

34c6ee1894 Specifically give priority to wrong_spec when they conflict. 
This appears to yield 10% performance improvement as our default setup
appears to choose a wrong priority.

4e0da006e8 Make non-speculative training optional. 
Removing non-speculative training actually improves performance in
CoreMark.  While it's "safer", I guess this isn't required for BSC.

7b472d4d3c Reduce area overhead by using an unguarded specfifo that does not have 
to be worst-case-sized, but can drop elements if it is full.

d56045effe Make the associative BTB compressed. 
That is, only store the bottom 16 bits of the target if the upper bits
of pc and nextPc match.
Have a single "way" dedicated to full targets.

8379d77cc5 Don't use a synthesis barrier for Bht so that we don't have to add it to 
XML.  The direction predictor already has one anyway.

e342600cb5 Try the traditional Bht, as it seems like it might be less fiddly with 
speculative training.

d5e52a9ecb Revert to upstream direction predictors to reduce diffs and prepare for 
improvements that can be upstreamed.
Basically, only use addresses in these predictors rather than
capabilities, and just pass an address in from the FetchStage.

cb1858447b Fix tracing of Sc. 
Sc is unique in that it writes both memory and a register value.
This implementation works around the fact that the memory store data and
the register write data are sharing the same field in the reorder buffer
by inferring the writeback value of Sc from the byteEnable field.

fb1a629e07 Decode: Fix capability width mode-dependent LR/SC 
All of St, Amo, Lr and Sc use the normal 3-bit encoding for the width;
rather than add Lr and Sc to the list, switch it just to exclude Ld as
the special case that's handled by the other half of the expression.

Previously LR.C and SC.C were decoded as LR.BU and SC.BU.

dad3d504b1 Take into account BTB predictions. 
nextPc only reflected things known in the Decode stage, but not before
(i.e. BTB predictions).
This meant that we were pretty much always redirecting JRs.
I needed to pipe through whether a jump was predicted by the BTB or not,
and then only stop predicting if there is no nextPc prediction and also
no BTB prediction.  This should actually reasonably approximate SBC.
Also, this one is not "redirecting", it's just flushing (flipping
decode_epoch_local), trusting that we'll get a later redirection.

5d5bee3e08 Use an invalid virtual address when preventing prediction, and also 
detect invalid virtual addresses in the TLB and miss rather than proceed
with page walking.
