The `%store/dar/...` and `%store/qdar/...` instructions are used to load a
value into an entry in dynamic array or queue. These instructions will skip
the load if VVP flag 4 is 1.
For assignment pattern initialization these instructions are used to load
the value of the individual assignment pattern expressions into the dynamic
array.
For queues flag 4 is never cleared when generating the code for the
assignment pattern. This means the initialization might be skipped
depending on what value the flag had before.
```
int a = 1;
int q[$];
a = a == 1;
q = {1, 2, 3, 4};
```
For dynamic arrays it is cleared once in the beginning. But each item in
the assignment pattern can be an arbitrary expression. Evaluating the
expression can cause the flag to get overwritten. E.g. the following code
will skip the assignments.
```
int a = 1;
int d[];
d = {a ? 1 : 1, 2, 3, 4};
```
To fix these issues make sure that the flag is cleared after evaluating
each initialization expression and before executing the `%store/...`
instruction.

IEEE Std 1800-2017 Section 7.6 Array assignments
Assignment of a dynamic array creates a duplicate of the source,
so that assignments to the copy don't impact the original. Handle
all sorts of dynamic array base types.
When -pfileline=1 is used the queue procedural warnings have file
and line information added to the messages. Also switch the trace
debugging to be off by default.
Also, Add some preliminary missing darray functionality.
As discussed on iverilog-devel (2018-03-09), the existing implementation
(using Icarus-specific vpi functions) only worked with assignments to
simple variables, and could not be easily modified to work more generally.
So use the new vvp instructions added in the previous two commits.
The .scope needs to be aware of return types so that the %call/vec4
function knows how to intialize the return value. We also need to
extend the %ret/vec4 to support writing parts of the return value.
Defining __USE_MINGW_ANSI_STDIO=1 provides C99 compatible printf
and scanf routines, which avoids the need for workarounds for the
various failings of the Microsoft C runtime library.
This adds the runtime support for class properties that are classes
to be arrayed. Add a means to define the dimensions of a property
in the vvp format, and add functions for setting/extracting elements
of a property.
This goes all the way down to the vvp level, where we create support
for arrays of objects, generate the new code in the -tvvp code
generator, and elaborate the arrays in the first place.
