Recent versions of verilator support the --build option, allowing
us to remove a step.
Also add a Docker image for verilator.

The verilator build fails with warnings and errors, because NGPIO
is 0 and we do things like:
gpio_out : out std_ulogic_vector(NGPIO - 1 downto 0);
Set NGPIO to something reasonable (eg 32) and add HAS_GPIO to avoid
building the macro entirely if it isn't in use.

Experimenting with using ghdl to do VHDL to Verilog conversion (instead
of ghdl+yosys), verilator complains that a signal is a SystemVerilog
keyword:
%Error: microwatt.v:15013:18: Unexpected 'do': 'do' is a SystemVerilog keyword misused as an identifier.
... Suggest modify the Verilog-2001 code to avoid SV keywords, or use `begin_keywords or --language.
We could probably make this go away by disabling SystemVerilog, but
it's easy to rename the signal in question. Rename di at the same
time.

This is the start of an implementation of a PMU according to PowerISA
v3.0B. Things not implemented yet include most architected events,
the BHRB, event-based branches, thresholding, MMCR0[TBCC] field, etc.

We've been investigating why the barrel rotator uses an enormous
number of cells on the yosys ECP5 target. Eventually it was narrowed
down to the -abc9 -nowidelut options, which see the cell count go from
4985 cells to 841 cells.
Using the same options on an Orange Crab build reduces the cell count
from 50864 to 36085. The main differences:
LUT4 31040 -> 25270
PFUMX 6956 -> 0
L6MUX21 1746 -> 0
CCU2C 2066 -> 1759

This adds a load before a floating-point load which should generate a
floating-point unavailable interrupt, to test for the bug where
unavailability interrupts can get dropped while loadstore1 is
executing instructions.

At present the logic prevents any interrupts from being handled while
there is a load/store instruction (one that has unit=LDST) being
executed. However, load/store instructions can still get sent to
loadstore1. Thus an instruction which should generate an interrupt
such as a floating-point unavailable interrupt will instead get
executed.
To fix this, when we detect that an interrupt should be generated but
loadstore1 is still executing a previous instruction, we don't execute
any new instructions, and set a new r.intr_pending flag. That results
in busy_out being asserted (meaning that no further instructions will
come in from decode2). When loadstore1 has finished the instructions
it has, the interrupt gets sent to writeback. If one of the
instructions in loadstore1 generates an interrupt in the meantime, the
l_in.interrupt signal gets asserted and that clears r.intr_pending, so
the interrupt we detected gets discarded.

litesdcard provides a macro per vendor (eg xilinx, lattice) and not per
board, so modify the fusesoc generator to take a vendor. This will make
it easier to add litesdcard to more boards.

Add SYNTH_ECP5_FLAGS option for building
Removing noflatten has the added advantage that it gets our builds

The icache RAM is currently LUT ram not block ram. This massively
bloats the icache size. We think this is due to yosys not inferencing
the RAM correctly but that's yet to be confirmed.
Work around this for now by reducing the default size of the icache
RAM for the ECP5 builds.
On the ECP5 85K builts, this gets us from 95% down to 76% and helps
our CI to pass.

This implements a 1-entry partition table, so that instead of getting
the process table base address from the PRTBL SPR, the MMU now reads
the doubleword pointed to by the PTCR register plus 8 to get the
process table base address. The partition table entry is cached.
Having the PTCR and the vestigial partition table reduces the amount
of software change required in Linux for Microwatt support.

The VUnit log package is a SW style logging framework in VHDL and the check package is an assertion library doing its error reporting with VUnit logging.
These testbenches don't use, and do not need, very advanced logging/checking features but the following was possible to improve
- Checking equality in VHDL can be quite tedious with a lot of type conversions and long message strings to explain the data received and what was expected.
VUnit's check_equal procedure allow comparison between same or similar types and automatically create the error message for you.
- The code has report statements used for testbench progress reporting and debugging. These were replaced with the info and debug procedures.
info logs are visible by default while debug is not. This means that debug logs don't have to be commented, which they are now, when not used.
Instead there is a show procedure making debug messages visible. The show procedure has been commented to hide the debug messages but a more elegant
solution is to control visibility from a generic and then set that generic from the command line. I've left this as a TODO but the run script allow you to
extend the standard CLI of VUnit to add new options and you can also set generics from the run script.
- VUnit log messages are color coded if color codes are supported by the terminal. It makes it quicker to spot messages of different types when there are many log messages.
Error messages will always be made visible on the terminal but you must use the -v (verbose) to see other logs.
- Some tests have a lot of "metvalue detected" warning messages from the numeric_std package and these clutter the logs when using the -v option. VUnit has a simulator independent
option allowing you to suppress those messages. That option has been enabled.
