Optimize complex combinational logic in DFG (#6298)
This patch adds DfgLogic, which is a vertex that represents a whole,
arbitrarily complex combinational AstAlways or AstAssignW in the
DfgGraph.

Implementing this requires computing the variables live at entry to the
AstAlways (variables read by the block), so there is a new
ControlFlowGraph data structure and a classical data-flow analysis based
live variable analysis to do that at the variable level (as opposed to
bit/element level).

The actual CFG construction and live variable analysis is best effort,
and might fail for currently unhandled constructs or data types. This
can be extended later.

V3DfgAstToDfg is changed to convert the Ast into an initial DfgGraph
containing only DfgLogic, DfgVertexSplice and DfgVertexVar vertices.

The DfgLogic are then subsequently synthesized into primitive operations
by the new V3DfgSynthesize pass, which is a combination of the old
V3DfgAstToDfg conversion and new code to handle AstAlways blocks with
complex flow control.

V3DfgSynthesize by default will synthesize roughly the same constructs
as V3DfgAstToDfg used to handle before, plus any logic that is part of a
combinational cycle within the DfgGraph. This enables breaking up these
cycles, for which there are extensions to V3DfgBreakCycles in this patch
as well. V3DfgSynthesize will then delete all non synthesized or non
synthesizable DfgLogic vertices and the rest of the Dfg pipeline is
identical, with minor changes to adjust for the changed representation.

Because with this change we can now eliminate many more UNOPTFLAT, DFG
has been disabled in all the tests that specifically target testing the
scheduling and reporting of circular combinational logic.

Break some combinational cycles in DFG (#6168)
Added an algorithm that can break some combinational cycles in DFG, by
attempting to trace driver logic until we escape the cycle. This can
eliminate a decent portion of UNOPTFLAT warnings. E.g. due to this code:

```systemverilog
assign a[0] = .....;
assign a[1] = ~a[0];
```

Optimize constify within Expand and Subst (#6111)
These passes blow up the Ast size on some designs, so delaying running V3Const
until after the whole pass can notably increase peak memory usage. In this
patch we apply V3Const per CFunc within these passes, which saves on memory.
Added -fno-const-eager to disable the intra-pass V3Const application, for
debugging.

Automatically split some packed variables (#5843)
This patch adds a heuristic to V3SplitVar, and it attempts to split up

Split up assignments to wides with Concat on the RHS (#5599)
Add a new pass to split up (recursively):

foo = {l, r};

into the following, with the right indices, iff the concatenation
straddles a wide word boundary.

foo[_:_] = r;
foo[_:_] = l;

This eliminates more wide temporaries.

Another 23% speedup on VeeR EH2 high_perf. Also brings the predicted
stack size from 8M to 40k.
