This adds one-cycle latches to the various resets out of the soc and
into the various core modules. It *seems* to help vivado P&R a bit
and has shown to avoid timing violations under some circumstances.
Interestingly those resets never seem to appear in the bad timing
path. It looks like those long resets simply impose placement
constraints that Vivado satisfies at the expense of timing elsewhere.

Things have changed a bit in upstream LiteX. LiteDRAM now exposes a
wishbone for the CSRs for example.

This adds support for initializing the memory controller from microwatt
rather than using a built-in RiscV processor. This might require some
fixes to LiteX and LiteDRAM (they haven't been merged as of this commit
yet).
This is enabled in the shipped generated files and can be changed via
modifying the generator script to pass False to "mw_init"

These provides some info about the SoC (though it's still somewhat
incomplete and needs more work, see comments).
There's also a control register for selecting DRAM vs. BRAM at 0
(and for soft-resetting the SoC but that isn't wired up yet).

An external signal can control whether the core will start
executing at the standard or the alternate reset address.
This will be used when litedram is initialized by microwatt
itself, to route the reset to the built-in init code secondary
block RAM.

New unified ICP and ICS XICS compliant interrupt controller.
Configurable number of hardware sources.
Fixed hardware source number based on hardware line taken. All
hardware interrupts are a fixed priority. Level interrupts supported
only.
Hardwired to 0xc0004000 in SOC (UART is kept at 0xc0002000).

This replaces the simple_ram_behavioural and mw_soc_memory modules
with a common wishbone_bram_wrapper.vhdl that interfaces the
pipelined WB with a lower-level RAM module, along with an FPGA
and a sim variants of the latter.

Vivado by default tries to flatten the module hierarchy to improve
placement and timing. However this makes debugging timing issues
really hard as the net names in the timing report can be pretty
bogus.
This adds a generic that can be used to control attributes to stop
vivado from flattening the main core components. The resulting design
will have worst timing overall but it will be easier to understand
what the worst timing path are and address them.

For now ... it reduces the routing pressure on the FPGA
This needs manual adjustment of the address decoder in soc.vhdl, at
least until I can figure out how to deal with std_match

The current scheme has UART0 repeating throughout the UART address range.
This patch tightens the address checking so that it only occurs once.

This module adds some simple core controls:
reset, stop, start, step
along with icache clear and reading the NIA and core
status bits

This adds a debug module off the DMI (debug) bus which can act as a
wishbone master to generate read and write cycles.

This adds a simple bus that can be mastered from an external
system via JTAG, which will be used to hookup various debug
modules.
It's loosely based on the RiscV model (hence the DMI name).
The module currently only supports hooking up to a Xilinx BSCANE2
but it shouldn't be too hard to adapt it to support different TAPs
if necessary.
The JTAG protocol proper is not exactly the RiscV one at this point,
though I might still change it.
This comes with some sim variants of Xilinx BSCANE2 and BUFG and a
test bench.
