HSAIL Simulator open sourced

[Deneau, Tom]

Now that the HSAIL backend has been checked into the Graal trunk,
I have updated the wiki page below since the procedure for building and running
graal against the simulator is simpler now.

Subject: HSAIL Simulator open sourced

I am pleased to announce that the HSA Foundation has open sourced the
following projects:

    * libHSAIL (tools for parsing, assembling and disassembling HSAIL)
    * an HSAIL Instruction Set Simulator
    * OKRA interface to the HSAIL Simulator

The following wiki page goes into detail of how to build the simulator
and describes some tests that can be run against it, including tests that
use the graal HSAIL backend patch which is currently under review.
