Lars-Peter Clausen e263d5b268 tgt-vvp: Fix store skip for assignment operator on dynamic part select
The operator assignment on dynamic part selects uses the `%store/vec4`
instruction to store the value. This instruction will skip the assignment
if flag 4 is set. This is for handling the case where the index is
undefined.

Since the left hand side of the assignment is an arbitrary expression it
can change the flag. The implementation handles this by making a copy of
the flag and restoring it before executing the `%store/vec4` instruction.

The flag is set by the `%ix/vec4` instruction when loading the index
register. But the copy of the flag is made before that and just picks
up the flag that was stored by previous expressions. This can cause
the store to be skipped when it shouldn't.

E.g. in the following code the increment will be skipped. Flag 4 is used
from the `a == 0` comparison, rather than from computing the part select
index.

```
int a = 0;
if (a == 0) begin
  a[a+:2] += 1;
end
$display(a); // Will print 0, should print 1
```

Fix this by moving the copy of the flag after the `%ix/vec4` instruction.

THE VVP TARGET

SYMBOL NAME CONVENTIONS

There are some naming conventions that the vvp target uses for
generating symbol names.

* wires and regs

Nets and variables are named V_<full-name> where <full-name> is the
full hierarchical name of the signal.

* Logic devices

Logic devices (and, or, buf, bufz, etc.) are named L_<full_name>. In
this case the symbol is attached to a functor that is the output of
the logic device.


GENERAL FUNCTOR WEB STRUCTURE

The net of gates, signals and resolvers is formed from the input
design. The basic structure is wrapped around the nexus, which is
represented by the ivl_nexus_t.

Each nexus represents a resolved value. The input of the nexus is fed
by a single driver. If the nexus in the design has multiple drivers,
the drivers are first fed into a resolver (or a tree of resolvers) to
form a single output that is the nexus.

The nexus, then, feeds its output to the inputs of other gates, or to
the .net objects in the design.
