Add ability to run only a chunk of instruction file #35

From Dr. Milenkovic:

We often cannot afford to simulate entire benchmarks - we use PinPoints to speed things up - e.g., warm-up a cache, skip 2 billion of instructions, and simulate next 1 billion of instruction, before reporting statistics. Is it possible to support something like that?

Investigate only running a portion of the instructions. Needs to have a JSON parameter or two.
