Change the way GRU resources are assigned for kernel threads. GRU
contexts for kernel threads are now allocated on demand and can be stolen
by user processes when idle. This allows MPI jobs to use ALL of the GRU
resources when the kernel is not using them.

Change the interface to cch_allocate so that it can be used to allocate
GRU contexts for kernel threads. Kernel threads use the GRU in unmapped
mode and do not require ASIDs for the GRU TLB.

Change the GRU instructions that manage contexts from inline functions to
out-of-line functions. This simplifies adding statistics & error checking
to these functions.
