This makes it easier to parse the records in verilog because they
are getting flattened into an array of bits by ghdl/yosys.

Currently, when not using litedram, the top level still has to hook
up "dummy" wishbones to the main dram and control dram busses coming
out of the SoC and provide ack signals.
Instead, make the SoC generate the acks internally when not using
litedram and use defaults to make the wiring entirely optional.

This changes the SoC interconnect such that the main 64-bit wishbone out
of the processor is first split between only 3 slaves (BRAM, DRAM and a
general "IO" bus) instead of all the slaves in the SoC.
The IO bus leg is then latched and down-converted to 32 bits data width,
before going through a second address decoder for the various IO devices.
This significantly reduces routing and timing pressure on the main bus,
allowing to get rid of frequent timing violations when synthetizing on
small'ish FPGAs such as the Artix-7 35T found on the original Arty board.

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

This replaces loadstore2 with a dcache
The dcache unit is losely based on the icache one (same basic cache
layout), but has some significant logic additions to deal with stores,
loads with update, non-cachable accesses and other differences due to
operating in the execution part of the pipeline rather than the fetch
part.
The cache is store-through, though a hit with an existing line will
update the line rather than invalidate it.
