Description
-------

This patch adds a global-global (gAG) branch predictor, used by specifying the 
"global" predType.
>From BranchPredictor, it uses the following variables for configuration: 
 - globalPredictorSize
 - globalCtrBits
 - globalHistoryBits

As such, it may conflict with the ongoing effort to factor out the redundant 
variable in the predictors.

Testing
-------

Prior to submission, this was tested by building build/ARM/gem5.debug, and run 
against a subset of the SPEC CPU2006 benchmarks. Statistics generated seem 
valid, and it caused no execution errors.


Thanks,

Taylor Lloyd
