ruby: replace g_ruby_start with per-RubySystem m_start_cycle
This patch begins the process of removing global variables from the Ruby
source with the goal of eventually allowing users to create multiple Ruby
instances in a single simulation. Currently, users cannot do so because
several global variables and static members are referenced by the RubySystem
object in a way that assumes that there will only ever be a single RubySystem.
These need to be replaced with per-RubySystem equivalents.
This specific patch replaces the global var g_ruby_start, which is used
to calculate throughput statistics for Throttles in simple networks and
links in Garnet networks, with a RubySystem instance var m_start_cycle.
