stdlib: Fix component incorporation ordering

Running with KVM cores was not possible with the previous ordering. The
processor must be incorporated after the cache hierarchy when using a
KVM core. A more detailed account of this bug is noted here:
https://gem5.atlassian.net/browse/GEM5-1113

This patch only partially fixes the problem. Ideally the component
incorporation order should not cause problems.
