Add flags to enable IEEE1800-2017 and IEEE1800-2023 languages generations
and also support them in the `begin_keywords macro. Since neither defines
new keywords they'll use the same keyword mask as 2012.
Update the driver, compiler, documentation and regression test harness so
-g2017 and -g2023 are recognized as language generation flags.
There are no specific features from these versions added yet, this is just
the necessary infrastructure to allow gating new features from those
generations when they are added later.

This adds the "normal-vlog95" test type, because we need to run a different
set of commands for this to work so a new test type makes sense. This also
moves a few of the existing tests to the new format in order to test the
new test rig.
Add a regression test to show that the proper dumpfile is selected, by
noting in the output from the vvp command what file name it is creating.
To make this work, I also needed to add some capabilities to the vvp_reg.py
regression test rig.
This creates a new test suite driver and infrastructure for going
forward. This cleans up the descriptions for tests, and is more
extensible.
Include documentation for the new engine, so that new tests can go
here instead of the old test suite.
