The constant pool is now an ordinary package, created with the netlist
and instantiated under $root like any other package, and most special
handling has been removed, including AstConstPool. Lookups go through
V3ConstPool, which has a singleton instance owned by V3Global. Static
methods on V3Common form the public interfce to add/find constant pool
entries.
With that, the constant pool is usable at any stage during compilation,
so enum and dimension tables created by V3Width, and enum value tables
created by V3Randomize now also live in the constant pool instead of
$unit, so identical tables are shared.
Associative array constants are handled separately from unpacked
tables, which used to be broken but unused.
Emitted constant pool variables use direct initialization, and
`constinit` with C++20 where the type allows it. This ensures we don't
change a run-time in a way that would result in unintended code size
increase.
-fno-merge-const-pool, which was introduced years ago but never prompted
a bug report is deprecated and has no effect.
This is also prep for future work.
Added cppcheck-suppressions.txt in the repo root. You can add new
patterns in there instead of having to parse the XML output.
Also configure to add the -D__GNUC__ preprocessor macro, which makes it
understand UASSERT (it understands the 'noreturn' function attribute).
Added some case by case specific suppressions and fixed up other code,
especially in V3Ast*h and V3Dfg*.h, including code generated by astgen
that had some no-ops that irks cppcheck.
One thing it does not seem to like is `const` class members with default
initializers in the class. It will assume that's always the value, even
if overridden in the constructor. We had few so removed them.
With that a lot of files in `src/` are now clean or only have a handful
of issues. Therefore, I have also deleted cppcheck_filtered, and made it
produce human readable output straight to the terminal.
Regarding cleaning up the reported nits, I kind of got bored after
V3[A-E] so pausing here. Apologies for the merge conflicts.
Tested with cppcheck 2.13.0
Prevents the possibility of assigning an integer to a class reference,
both at the SystemVerilog and the emitted C++ levels.

- 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
