To determine the base type structs and packed arrays call the
figure_packed_base_type() for their sub-types.
This method is not defined for enum or atom2 types and the default
implementation returns IVL_VT_NO_TYPE.
As a result packed arrays of enum or atom2 types and packed structs with
members of enum or atom2 types get elaborated with IVL_VT_NO_TYPE
as the base type.
For example
```
struct packed {
bit signed [31:0] x;
} s1;
```
gets elaborated with a base type of IVL_VT_BOOL, while
```
struct packed {
int x;
} s2;
```
gets elaborated with a base type of IVL_VT_NONE.
To fix this define the figure_packed_base_type() for enum_type_t and
atom2_type_t.

Some types, i.e. vector types with parameterized dimensions,
may have different elaboration results in different scopes.
Handle those cases in the elaboration caches.
In vvp, create the .var/str variable for representing strings, and
handle strings in the $display system task.
Add to vvp threads the concept of a stack of strings. This is going to
be how complex objects are to me handled in the future: forth-like
operation stacks. Also add the first two instructions to minimally get
strings to work.
In the parser, handle the variable declaration and make it available
to the ivl_target.h code generator. The vvp code generator can use this
information to generate the code for new vvp support.
Parse typedefs with structs and enums, but give a sorry message,
because they are not yet supported. Rearrange some of the parse
rules for variables in order to increase comonality with the
typedef rules.
The l-value of a defparam assignment is a hierarchical name that may
include array selects to select scopes from module arrays. Therefore
it makes no sense to store parsed defparams in a map. Instead, they
should go into an ordered list. This also maked more sense because later
defparams *may* have the same name as a previous defparam, and will
override the previous defparam. So replace the map of parsed defparams
with a list of parsed defparams.
Also, as soon as the defparam expression is elaborated, the list entry
is no longer needed, so delete it. Save memory.
