If constant functions are exited by a return/disable, fix
the leaked "disable" flag that causes blocks in the next
try at the function to not work.
There are also a lot of debug messages added to help find
this and similar problems.
Class constructors are the "new" method in a class description.
Elaborate the constructor as an ordinary method, but the only
way to access this method is to implicitly call it. The elaborator
will take the constructor call and generate a naked "new" expression
and implicit constructor method call with the object itself as the
return value.
These two typedefs exactly matched earlier ones in the same scope and
gcc was complaining that they were shadowing the previous definitions.
Since the definitions matched exactly just deleting the second
typedef was acceptable.
When a conditional statement is unnamed, it doesn't create a scope
and we get into "direct" generate scheme elaboration. This direct
elaboration needs to handle case generate schemes.
This is a cleanup in preparation for better support of range lists.

This patch allows the compiler to perform early elaboration
of functions if they are encountered in expressions that are
elaborated before the function would normally be elaborated.
This makes the function available for constant evaluation.
Suitable error messages are generated if a function that is
used in a constant expression is not a valid constant function.
This patch changes the method used to signal that a constant expression
is being elaborated from flags stored in global variables to flags
passed down the call chain. It also generates more informative error
messages when variable references are found in a constant expression.
The compiler currently performs parameter expression elaboration before
performing parameter overrides. This means that the information needed
to correctly determine the expression type and width may not be available
at the time elaboration is performed. This patch reworks the code to
delay elaboration until after all overrides have been performed. It
also provides a new -g option that controls how the width of parameter
expressions is calculated when the parameter itself is unsized.
Using reg real [1:0] var you can define a real variable with a
range. This was crashing the run time. This patch catches this
in the compiler and prints an appropriate message.
The pform propagates the parsed enum base type information
to the elaborator so that the base type can be fully elaborated.
This is necessary to get the types of the enumeration literals
correct.
This patch covers more than it should. It removes many of the -Wextra
warnings in the main ivl directory. It also makes some minor code
improvements, adds support for constant logicals in eval_tree (&&/||),
adds support for correctly sign extending === and !==, it starts to
standardize the eval_tree debug messages and fixes a strength bug
in the target interface (found with -Wextra). The rest of the warnings
and eval_tree() rework will need to come as a second patch.
This patch changes all the iterator code to use a prefix ++ instead
of postfix since it is more efficient (no need for a temporary). It
is likely that the compiler could optimize this away, but lets make
it efficient from the start.
