configs: add maxinsts option on command line
-option to allow threads to run to a max_inst_any_thread which is more 
useful/quicker in a lot of
cases then always having to figure out what tick to run your simulation to.


There was already a max-inst option and you aded maxinsts. I would say it's a 
bug and maxinsts should go away and the line that uses it in Simulation.py 
should be replaced with max-insts.
