Significant rework of scope management to unify the handling of
types in the ieee library and types/constants/components in packages.
This involved adjusting the parser rules to manage a stack of scopes
and rewriting the IEEE library support to not use global maps for
the loaded types.
This creates the Package class to represent packages, and the
Scope class to represent scopes in general. The library functions
are worked up to support scanning scopes for declarations that are
imported by "use" clauses.
In VHDL it is allowed to have multiple architectures
per one entity. The proper architecture should be then
chosen in a configuration block. Now, if many architectures
will be found, then there will be a warning message printed.
FIXME notes are added in order not to forget about changes to
be done
In principle, some of these should be handled by overloaded operator
functions, but these are built in types with natural translations so
do the obvious things.
Implement the parser infrastructure for handling library use clauses,
and use that to handle specific packages of the ieee library. Make
the numeric types come from the numeric_* packages instead of being
built in.
There are internal types that are unbounded arrays. Allow subtype
syntax that creates bounded versions of these arrays, and elaborate
them as vectors at port boundaries. This makes some interesting types
work out.
Also start replacing vhdlint and vhdlreal with int64_t and double,
which are reasonable values for universal_integer and universal_real
from the VHDL standard. I need these cleaned up because the ints in
particular are used for the literal expressions in array index constraints.
