Make the external domains provider of ordering populate an output
vector, which then allows us to add multiple external sensitivities to
combinational logic.
Using unlinkFrBackWithNext is O(n) in the size of the list if unlinking
from the middle, so addHereThisAsNext also had this complexity. This
patch implements addHereThisAsNext directly, which is always O(1).
Use std::partial_sort for the non-exhaustive case. This is O(n) instead
of O(n*log(n)) in the size of the candidate list being sorted. (It
actually is O(n*log(k)), but k is constant 6 in the non-exhaustive
case).

VCD tracing is now parallelized using the same thread pool as the model.
We achieve this by breaking the top level trace functions into multiple
top level functions (as many as --threads), and after emitting the time
stamp to the VCD file on the main thread, we execute the tracing
functions in parallel on the same thread pool as the model (which we
pass to the trace file during registration), tracing into a secondary
per thread buffer. The main thread will then stitch (memcpy) the buffers
together into the output file.
This makes the `--trace-threads` option redundant with `--trace`, which
now only affects `--trace-fst`. FST tracing uses the previous offloading
scheme.
This obviously helps a lot in VCD tracing performance, and I have seen
better than Amdahl speedup, namely I get 3.9x on XiangShan 4T (2.7x on
OpenTitan 4T).
V3MergeCond merges consecutive conditional `_ = cond ? _ : _` and
`if (cond) ...` statements. This patch adds an analysis and ordering
phase that moves statements with identical conditions closer to each
other, in order to enable more merging opportunities. This in turn
eliminates a lot of repeated conditionals which reduced dynamic branch
count and branch misprediction rate. Observed 6.5% improvement on
multi-threaded large designs, at the cost of less than 2% increase in
Verilation speed.
For ordering, only the scope of logic vertices should be relevant, so
remove the scope pointer from OrderEitherVertex and move it into
OrderLogicVertex. This does not change single-threaded scheduling at
all. Theoretically, multi-threaded scheduling should not be affected
either though due to some implementation quirk depending on vertex order
in a graph the MT schedule is perturbed by this change, but the
performance effect of this is negligible on all benchmarks I have access
to.
No functional change intended.
