sim: split into base, core, and engines.
Before this commit, each simulation engine (which is only pysim at
the moment, but also cxxsim soon) was a subclass of SimulatorCore,
and every simulation engine module would essentially duplicate
the complete structure of a simulator, with code partially shared.
This was a really bad idea: it was inconvenient to use, with
downstream code having to branch between e.g. PySettle and CxxSettle;
it had no well-defined external interface; it had multiple virtually
identical entry points; and it had no separation between simulation
algorithms and glue code.
This commit completely rearranges simulation code.
1. sim._base defines internal simulation interfaces. The clarity of
these internal interfaces is important because simulation
engines mix and match components to provide a consistent API
regardless of the chosen engine.
2. sim.core defines the external simulation interface: the commands
and the simulator facade. The facade provides a single entry
point and, when possible, validates or lowers user input.
It also imports built-in simulation engines by their symbolic
name, avoiding eager imports of pyvcd or ctypes.
3. sim.xxxsim (currently, only sim.pysim) defines the simulator
implementation: time and state management, process scheduling,
and waveform dumping.
The new simulator structure has none of the downsides of the old one.

back.rtlil: do not squash empty modules.
In commit
9faa1d37, the RTLIL backend was changed to ignore modules
without ports completely, since Yosys would recognize empty modules
as black boxes without explicit `write_verilog -noblackbox` and break
the design. That change had many flaws:
* It removed instances without ports, which are used in e.g. SoC
FPGAs to instantiate a dummy CPU.
* It removed fragments without ports, which can appear in e.g. SoC
FPGAs in case the fabric is not connected to any I/O ports.
* Finally, it was just conceptually unjustified.
This commit changes the logic to actually check for empty fragments,
and instead of removing them, it adds a dummy wire inside. It would
be possible to use the Yosys-specific (*noblackbox*) attribute.
However, it would be necessary to strip it for most targets right
away, and also the wire doubles as documentation.
Fixes #441.

back.verilog: omit Verilog initial trigger only if Yosys adds it.
Verilog has an edge case where an `always @*` process, which is used
to describe a combinatorial function procedurally, may not execute
at time zero because none of the signals in its implicit sensitivity
list change, i.e. when the process doesn't read any signals. This
causes the wires driven by the process to stay undefined.
The workaround to this problem (assuming SystemVerilog `always_comb`
is not available) is to introduce a dummy signal that changes only
at time zero and is optimized out during synthesis. nMigen has had
its own workaround, `$verilog_initial_trigger`, for a while. However,
`proc_prune`, while increasing readability, pulls references to this
signal out of the process. Because of this, a similar workaround was
implemented in Yosys' `write_verilog` itself.
This commit ensures we use our workaround on versions of Yosys
without the updated `write_verilog`, and Yosys' workaround on later
versions.

vendor: `yosys` is not a required tool for proprietary toolchains.
Since commit

to produce Verilog is different from the usual require_tool(); namely
it is possible to produce Verilog without a `yosys` binary on PATH.
Fixes #419.
