Add/rework VPI access to modpaths. This allows VPI code access to
paths described in specify blocks. In the process, the VPI structure
has been reworked to conform to the IEEE1364 standard.

Wide division/modulus (more bits than unsigned long) gave incorrect
results when both the divisor and dividend where the same. They also
did not produce an error message when dividing by zero.
This patch enhances the current fflush implementation to flush a mcd or an
individual fd. Before it always flushed everything. A compiletf routine was
also added.
The modpath source node defines the modpath object, and carries the
nodes for the source expression. The modpath outputs are references
by pointers to the vpiModPath that is not in itself a vpi object
any more. This makes the VPI view of a module path look like the
source-destinaiton pair that is the IEEE1364 description of the
modpath.
Add vvp support for modpath path term outputs. This also introduces
the concept of path terms and moves towards the path term in general
for getting at the endpoits of a modpath.
Modpaths need to be in the proper scope in order to be available to
vpi functions. The code generator manages that by writing the modpath
records with scope switch functions. Batch the modpath records at the
end of the structural stuff so that the scope switching doesn't cause
trouble.
Also seperate the modpath code into its own source file.

Delay paths need a scope. This helps the code generators bind the
modpaths to the correct scope. This patch doesn't actually make use
of the information, it just makes it available to code generators.

Clean up rather poorly written modpath vpi support, fixing the
parse of the modpath syntax element to not use pointless globals.
Collect the modpath code into the delay.cc file instead of the
inapropriate vpi_signal.cc source file.

The << operator may not be defined when the RHS is greater than or
equal to the LHS width. To work around the problem the mask is
incrementally generated.
There have been reports in the field of number-to-real conversions
doing bad things with the calculated mantissa. This patch eliminates
a opssible portability problem by reworking the negating of negative
mantissa values.

Print out a warning if extra digits are given for sized binary, octal
or hex constants. Decimal constants are very hard since we never
calculate the true number of bits the digits represent, so for now
decimal constants are not checked.
The attached patch add an implementation for $dumplimit(). It does
not do a hard limit to the file size, but for VCD files it completes
the current time step and puts a comment in the file. For lxt and
lxt2 files the functionality is in place, but because of buffering
the file can be slightly larger than expected.
Factor common code for processing signed constants to be padded.
In the process, fix some minor bugs in the padding decisions.

The argument to $unsigned is self-determined no matter what the
context the $unsigned itself is in. This is important only where
the result can be negative but the result width is context-determined.
Do ocntext fitting manually to prevent the context fitting it and
affecting the expression argument.

This patch implements the System Verilog $urandom() and $urandom_range()
functions. There are no check to verify that $urandom_range is only given
unsigned arguments. If you give it a negative value the bit pattern will
be interpreted as a unsigned number.
Fix the handling of expressions that have unsized integers and are
in self determined context. Unsized integers are generally assumed
to have at least 32bits.

Constant propagation incorrectly elided an entire constant net node
if only the LSB of the driven vector was HiZ. This caused the entire
vector to look like HiZ. Also, the code generator for writing the
constant values missed bits.

This patch adds the ability to call command files from other command
files. There is currently a limit of 16 total levels deep (15 stored
plus the current file). -f is now an alias for -c for both the command
line and command files. The parser also reports errors when they occur
along with the file name and line number to aid in debugging problems.
In expressions, user defined functions have a clearly defined
width and the test_width expression needs to express that. Note
that the $signed/$unsigned functions are special and magical.

This patch adds ivl_scope_time_precision() to the compiler which can
be used to extract the local scope precision. tgt-stub and tgt-vvp
have been modified to use this new function and output a value that
is appropriate. The vvp runtime has been altered to use this new
data which is accessed with the vpip_time_precision_from_handle()
function. vpiTimePrecision uses this function to return the correct
precision.
The outputs to bufif and nmos/pmos devices are always strength-aware,
so should have their outputs connected to a net8 device.

This patch adds min_typ_max to expressions. Remember when using a
min_typ_max triplet in an expression they must be enclosed with
parenthesis (1364-2001 section 4.3 page 58).
Add support for accessing the modpath nodes via PLI,
and add support for the vpi_set_delays and vpi_put_delays
functions to set the delays on those paths.
