* verilator now successfully runs, once the nclk[] changes were completed to separate clk and rst, and
remove lcb's driving lclk's

##### first try

```
* bumped stopOnHang to 500 cycles and it does complete 1C0 after 134C. dsi on stwu. dear=FFFFFFE0. that is suspiciously identical to 0-32. what is trying to be read from @1060 to set r1??? that is in rom space. the tst wrapper is being linked into rom and not relocated! it should probably use a linker-gen'd pointer to use for its r/w data space. but wouldn't generally be building a tst into rom.
##### second try
* changed linker.ld to put tst in .data so it's copied by bios to ram...

```
* doesn't work (test3/mem.init), which does work for coccotb/icarus
* tid compare at start looks like it's using wrong value (imm from following bc?) and erat code is skipped

```
* debugged several fails near start of test (in issues) - first few are cases of ff behaving incorrectly; syntax changes in trilib got to reaching i=1 ifetches
* added CP signals to track completions (/*verilator public*/) and now first isync fails (flushes to @04)
