This is useful for certain cross-compilation workloads, and to cache
rarely changing build products.
To use this functionality, build e.g. as follows:
cmake . -B build-export -DEXPORT_BBA_FILES=../bba-files -DARCH=all
cmake --build build-export -t nextpnr-all-bba
cmake . -B build-import -DIMPORT_BBA_FILES=../bba-files -DARCH=all
cmake --build build-import
Two user-visible changes were made:
* `-DUSE_RUST` is replaced with `-DBUILD_RUST`, by analogy with
`-DBUILD_PYTHON`
* `-DCOVERAGE` was removed as it doesn't work with either modern GCC
or Clang
This removes the atomic rename for bbasm outputs because it embeds
the resulting paths into the `.cc` files in embed mode. In any case
the write should be fast enough to not be a big risk for interrupted
builds.
This was tested with Clang 19 only (gcc hasn't had a release that
supports `#embed` yet).
While it served a purpose (granting the ability to build `.bba` files
separately from the rest of nextpnr), it made things excessively
convoluted, especially around paths.
This commit removes the ability to pre-generate chip databases. As far
as I know, I was the primary user of that feature. It can be added back
if there is demand for it.
In exchange the per-family `CMakeLists.txt` files are now much easier
to understand.
`if(NOT DEFINED)` is not appropriate since a variable that contains
`-NOTFOUND` still counts as `DEFINED`. This can cause issues if
configuration fails, writes `-NOTFOUND` to the cache, and is then
restarted.
