build.plat: align pipeline with Fragment.prepare().
Since commit
7257c20a, platform code calls create_missing_domains()
before _propagate_domains_up() (as a part of prepare() call). Since
commit
a7be3b48, without a platform, create_missing_domains() is
calle after _propagate_domains_up(); because of that, it adds
the missing domain to the fragment. When platform code then calls
prepare() again, this causes an assertion failure.
The true intent behind the platform code being written this way is
that it *overrides* a part of prepare()'s mechanism. Because it was
not changed when prepare() was modified in
7257c20a, the override,
which happened to work by coincidence, stopped working. This is
now fixed by inlining the relevant parts of Fragment.prepare() into
Platform.prepare().

* back.pysim.DeadlineError was removed.
Summary of changes:
* The new simulator compiles HDL to Python code and is >6x faster.
(The old one compiled HDL to lots of Python lambdas.)
* The new simulator is a straightforward, rigorous implementation
of the Synchronous Reactive Programming paradigm, instead of
a pile of ad-hoc code with no particular design driving it.
* The new simulator never raises DeadlineError, and there is no
limit on the amount of delta cycles.
* The new simulator robustly handles multiclock designs.
* The new simulator can be reset, such that the compiled design
can be reused, which can save significant runtime with large
designs.
* Generators can no longer be added as processes, since that would
break reset(); only generator functions may be. If necessary,
they may be added by wrapping them into a generator function;
a deprecated fallback does just that. This workaround will raise
an exception if the simulator is reset and restarted.
* The new simulator does not depend on Python extensions.

def test_wrong_csr_bus(self):
with self.assertRaisesRegex(ValueError, r"blah blah"):
WishboneCSRBridge(csr_bus=object())
In theory, it should be possible to suppress warnings per-module
and even per-line using code such as:
import re, warnings
from nmigen.hdl.ir import UnusedElaboratable
warnings.filterwarnings("ignore", category=UnusedElaboratable,
module=re.escape(__name__))
Unfortunately, not only is this code quite convoluted, but it also
does not actually work; we are using warnings.warn_explicit() because
we collect source locations on our own, but it requires the caller
to extract the __warningregistry__ dictionary from module globals,
or warning suppression would not work. Not only is this not feasible
in most diagnostic sites in nMigen, but also I never got it to work
anyway, even when passing all of module, registry, and module_globals
to warn_explicit().
Instead, use a magic comment at the start of a file to do this job,

only UnusedElaboratable can be suppressed with it, but in future,

enums, ranges, etc) anywhere a tuple was accepted previously.
In addition, `signed(n)` and `unsigned(n)` are added as aliases for
`Shape(n, signed=True)` and `Shape(n, signed=False)`, transforming
code such as `Signal((8, True))` to `Signal(signed(8))`.
These aliases are also included in prelude.
Preparation for #225.

Consistently use {!r}, not '{!r}' in diagnostics.
This can cause confusion:
* If the erroneous object is None, it is printed as 'None', which
appears as a string (and could be the result of converting None
to a string.)
* If the erroneous object is a string, it is printed as ''<val>'',
which is a rather strange combination of quotes.

Both "operator" and "operand" were shortened to "op" in different
places in code, which caused confusion.
