acorn: Add support for the Acorn CLE 215+
This is a NiteFury based PCIe M2 form-factor board originally
used for mining. It contains a speed grade 2 Artix 7 200T,
1GB of DDR3 and 32MB of flash.
The serial port is routed to pin 2 (RX) and 3 (TX) of the P2
connector (pin 1 is GND).
Note: Only 16MB of flash is currently usable until code is added
to configure the flash controller to use 4-bytes address commands
on that part.

loadstore1: Better expression for store data formatting
This rearranges the code used for store data formatting so that the
"for i in 0 to 7" loop indexes the output bytes rather than the
input bytes. The new expression is formally identical to the old
but is easier to synthesize. This reduces the number of LUTs by
about 250 on the Artix-7 and improves timing.

loadstore1: Further tweaks to improve synthesis with yosys/nextpnr
This reworks the way that the busy and done signals are generated in
loadstore in order to work around some problems where yosys/nextpnr
are reporting combinatorial loops (not in fact on the current code but
on minor variations needed for supporting the FPU). It seems that
yosys has problems with the case statement on v.state.
This also lifts the maddr and byte_sel generation out of the case
statement. The overall result is a slight reduction in resource usage
(~30 6-input LUTs on the A7-100).

Make the core go faster
Several major improvements in here:
- Simple branch predictor
- Reduced latency for mispredicted branches and interrupts by removing fetch2 stage
- Cache improvements
o Request critical dword first on refill
o Handle hits while refilling, including on line being refilled
o Sizes doubled for both D and I
- Loadstore improvements: can now do one load or store every two cycles in most cases
- Optimized 2-cycle multiplier for Xilinx 7-series parts using DSP slices
- Timing improvements, including:
o Stash buffer in decode1
o Reduced width of execute1 result mux
o Improved SPR decode in decode1
o Some non-critical operation take a cycle longer so we can break some long combinatorial chains
- Core logging: logs 256 bits of info every cycle into a ring buffer, to help with debugging and performance analysis

through the exc_write path to writeback.

core: Implement a simple branch predictor
This implements a simple branch predictor in the decode1 stage. If it
sees that the instruction is b or bc and the branch is predicted to be
taken, it sends a flush and redirect upstream (to icache and fetch1)
to redirect fetching to the branch target. The prediction is sent
downstream with the branch instruction, and execute1 now only sends
a flush/redirect upstream if the prediction was wrong. Unconditional
branches are always predicted to be taken, and conditional branches
are predicted to be taken if and only if the offset is negative.
Branches that take the branch address from a register (bclr, bcctr)
are predicted not taken, as we don't have any way to predict the
branch address.
Since we can now have a mflr being executed immediately after a bl
or bcl, we now track the update to LR in the hazard tracker, using
the second write register field that is used to track RA updates for
update-form loads and stores.
For those branches that update LR but don't write any other result
(i.e. that don't decrementer CTR), we now write back LR in the same
cycle as the instruction rather than taking a second cycle for the
LR writeback.
