Verilog compiler directives are free-form and, subject to semantic rules,
can appear anywhere in the source code. Whilst it is common practice to
write them on a separate line, we should handle all legal syntax.
It was common practice in the past to just declare a port direction
and declare it as a vector in a subsequent type declaration. Versions
of the standard up to and including 1364-2005 include an example that
does this (e.g. 1364-2005 section 12.3.7). Users may have old or
third-party code that they can't or don't want to modify, so allow
the warning to be suppressed by including it in the anachronisms
category.
Check that it is possible to assign an object to another object that is of
a type of any of its base classes. Also check that an error is reported if
this is not the case.

Check that it is possible to use a function with a return type as a
statement by using a void cast.
Also check that trying to void cast a void function, a task or an
expression results in an error.

Check that an error is reported when either calling a task or a void
function as part of an expression.

Check that a sign, width or type cast expression that contains an automatic
term is detected as such and can not be used as the left-hand side in a
procedural continuous assignment.

Check that it is possible to use a packed scope type identifier for the
type of a class property when the class is defined in the unit scope. This
makes sure that the elaboration is done in an order so that the type is
available when the class property is elaborated.

Check that it is possible to use a forward declared class type as the type
of a property in another class.
Signed-off-by: Lars-Peter Clausen <lars@metafoo.de>
Check that all sorts of forward typedefs are supported.
Also check that any recursive use of a type results in an error.

Check that compressed assignment statements are supported for genvar loops.
This is supported in SystemVerilog, but not in Verilog.

Check that $signed/$unsigned works when being combinatorially assigned with a
delay and the target of the function is a net without any drivers.

macro_start_args truncates def_buf, but does not check to ensure that
someone has allocated def_buf first. This will cause a null pointer
dereference if the first access to def_buf while parsing a file is a
macro invocation. Fix this by avoiding truncating def_buf if it is NULL,
as it is effectively already truncated.

Check that it is possible to have scoped reference to a type identifier in
a package.
* As part of variable declarations
* As an argument to a system function
* As the type in a type cast

Check that for a module port with a vector type identifier the type is
elaborated in the scope where it is declared rather than the scope of the
module port.

Check that it is possible to call a void function from a class method.
Check this for both functions defined in the global scope as well as
functions that are methods of the class or a base class.

Check for various dynamic array and queue types that their type
compatibility is handled correctly.

Current regression tests only cover checking for invalid non-blocking
writes to constructs that are valid in Verilog. Add two tests to
additionally cover some SystemVerilog constructs.
* Non-blocking writes to members of a struct typed variable with automatic
lifetime
* Non-blocking writes to class typed variables with automatic lifetime

Check that default values for class methods are handled correctly and it is
possible to omit any argument. Check it for both functions and tasks.

Check that it is possible to reference a package scoped identifier that has
the same name as a local identifier, but is a different kind of identifier.
* A variable or function identifier from a package scope if it is a
type identifier in the current scope
* A type identifier from a package scope if it is a non-type identifier
in the current scope
