This saves about 5% memory. V3AstUserAllocator is appropriate for most use
cases, performance is marginally up as we are mostly D-cache bound on
large designs.
Apart from the representational changes below, this patch renames
AstNodeMath to AstNodeExpr, and AstCMath to AstCExpr.
Now every expression (i.e.: those AstNodes that represent a [possibly
void] value, with value being interpreted in a very general sense) has
AstNodeExpr as a super class. This necessitates the introduction of an
AstStmtExpr, which represents an expression in statement position, e.g :
'foo();' would be represented as AstStmtExpr(AstCCall(foo)). In exchange
we can get rid of isStatement() in AstNodeStmt, which now really always
represent a statement
Peak memory consumption and verilation speed are not measurably changed.
Partial step towards #3420
- Rename `--dump-treei` option to `--dumpi-tree`, which itself is now a
special case of `--dumpi-<tag>` where tag can be a magic word, or a
filename
- Control dumping via static `dump*()` functions, analogous to `debug()`
- Make dumping independent of the value of `debug()` (so dumping always
works even without the debug flag)
- Add separate `--dumpi-graph` for dumping V3Graphs, which is again a
special case of `--dumpi-<tag>`
- Alias `--dump-<tag>` to `--dumpi-<tag> 3` as before
Introduce the @astgen directives parsed by astgen, currently used for
the generation child node (operand) accessors. Please see the updated
internal documentation for details.

The recent patch to defer substitutions on V3Gate crashes on circular
logic that has cycle length >= 3 with all inlineable signals (cycle
length 2 is detected correctly and is not inlined). Fix by stopping
recursion at the loop-back edge.
Fixes#3543
This is detritus from when V3TraceDecl used to run after V3Gate, today
V3TraceDecl runs before V3Gate and this value has no function at all.
No functional change intended.
