bel bindings should be updated with bindBel/unbindBel during placement, or setting the BEL attribute for constraints before placement.

When implementing concepts such as partition pins or deliberately split
nets, there's a need for something that looks like a cell (starts/ends
routing with pins on nets, has timing data) but isn't mapped to a fixed
bel in the architecture, but instead can have pin mappings defined at
runtime.
The PseudoCell allows this by providing an alternate, virtual-function
based API for such cells. When a cell has `pseudo_cell` used, instead of
calling functions such as getBelPinWire, getBelLocation or getCellDelay
in the Arch API; such data is provided by the cell itself, fully
flexible at runtime regardless of arch, via methods on the PseudoCell
implementation.
The wire numbers are very large and it is undesirable to use a thousand
separator there. This is a side effect of enabling locale.

This uses a new data structure for net.users that allows gaps, so
removing a port from a net is no longer an O(n) operation on the number
of users the net has.

* Items such as LUT, DFF, MUX, ALU, IOB are displayed;
* Local wires, 1-2-4-8 wires are displayed;
* The clock spines, taps and branches are displayed with some caveats.
For now, you can not create a project in the GUI because of possible
conflict with another PR (about GW1NR-9C support), but you can specify
the board in the command line and load .JSON and .CST in the GUI.
Although ALUs are displayed, but the CIN and COUT wires are not. This is
still an unsolved problem.

This won't affect Python-built arches significantly; but will be useful
for the future 'viaduct' functionality where generic routing graphs can
be built on the C++ side; too.

This makes predictDelay be based on an arbitrary belpin pair rather
than a arc of a net based on cell placement. This way 'what-if'
decisions can be evaluated without actually changing placement;
potentially useful for parallel placement.
A new helper predictArcDelay behaves like the old predictDelay to
minimise the impact on existing passes; only arches need be updated.
