cpu: Fixes on the loop predictor part of LTAGE
Fixed the following fields of the loop predictor entries as described on
the LTAGE paper:
- Age counter (it was 3 bits and it should be 8 bits)
- Tag (it was 16 bits and it should be 14 bits). Also some times it used
int variables and some times uint16_t, leading to wrong behaviour
- Confidence counter (it was 2 bits ins some parts of the code and 3 bits
in some other parts. It should be 2 bits)
- Iteration counters (they were 16 bits and they should be 14 bits)
All the new sizes are now configurable
