The DDR memory reference clock on the A10SoC development board is
differential. Currently the EMIF core it is configured for single-ended
configuration, which causes it to generate incorrect IOSTANDARD
constraints. Those incorrect constraints get overwritten again in
system_assign.tcl, so things are working, but this generates a warning when
building the design
Configure the EMIF core correctly and remove the manual constraint overwrite since
they are no longer necessary.

There is no guarantee that the external reset de-assertion is synchronous
to the sys_clk, yet the clock bridge marks the reset de-assertion as
synchronized to the clock. This can cause recovery or removal timing
violations for the registers affected by this reset signal and potentially
bring the system into an invalid state after the reset is de-asserted.
Mark the reset as not synchronized to the clock signal, this will make sure
that Qsys inserts the proper reset synchronizers where required.

Currently the TX lane mapping is implemented by having to connect tx_phy_s_* to
the tx_ip_s_* and the tx_phy_d_* to the tx_ip_d_* signals in the system
qsys file in the desired order.
Re-work things so that instead the lane mapping is provided through the
TX_LANE_MAP parameter. The parameter specifies in which order logical lanes
are mapped onto the physical lanes.
The appropriate connections are than made inside the core according to this
parameter rather than having to manually connect the signals externally.
In order to generate a 1-to-1 mapping the TX_LANE_MAP parameter can be left
empty.
This change slightly reduces the boiler-plate code that is necessary to
setup the transceiver.

+ Add a HDL parameter for the PPS receiver module :
PPS_RECEIVER_ENABLE. By default the module is disabled.
+ Add the CMOS_OR_LVDS_N and PPS_RECEIVER_ENABLE into the CONFIG
register
+ Define a pps_status read only register, which will be asserted, if the free
running counter reach a certain fixed threshold. (2^28) The register can
be deasserted by an incomming PPS only.
Some of the standard Quartus components (especially the Merlin cores) generate
quite a few synthesis warnings. Lets assume these are false positives and
disable the warnings.

The PLL frequency must be half of the lane rate and the core clock rate
must be lane rate divided by 40. There is no other option, otherwise things
wont work.
Instead of having to manually specify PLL and core clock frequency derive
them in the transceiver script. This reduces the risk of accidental
misconfiguration.

While things seem to work fine with only specifying the the IO standard for
the positive side of differential signals Quartus will issue a warning
about incomplete constraints if the IO standard is not specified for the
the neagtive side as well. To avoid these warnings add the missing
constraints.

rather than twice for half of them.

Both the sys_hps.f2sdram_clock and the sys_dma_clk.clk signal are in the
same clock domain. They are both driven by the same clock. And even though
qsys is capable of detecting this it seems qsys interconnect is not able to
infer this and inserts a extra clock domain crossing bridge between the DMA
and the HPS AXI system memory interface.
To avoid this connect the sys_dma_clk.clk to the sys_hps.f2sdram_clock so
that all components are driven by the same qsys clock signal.

Qsys allows to query to query the clock domain that is associated with a
clock input of a peripheral. This allows to automatically detect whether
the different clocks of the DMAC are asynchronous and CDC logic needs to be
inserted or not.
Auto-detection has the advantages that the configuration parameters don't
need to be set manually and the optional configuration will be choose
automatically. There is also less chance of error of leaving the settings
in a wrong configuration when e.g. the clock domains change.
In case the auto-detection should ever fail configuration options that
provide a manual overwrite are added as well.

Use the sys_dma_clk clock module for clock and reset signals of the data
path, rather than using the A10GX specific sys_ddr3_cntrl signals. This
enables compatibility for all Altera/Intel platforms.

The DAQ3 does not use a 1-to-1 lane mapping for the DAC JESD204 link.
Provide the proper mapping when setting up the transceiver connections.
Without this the payload data will be mapped incorrectly and the
transmitted signals are scrambled.

Add a parameter to the ad_xcvrcon function that allows to provide a mapping
between logical and physical lanes. By default if no lane map is provided
the logial and physical lanes are mapped 1-to-1. If a lane map is provided
logical lane $n is mapped onto physical lane $lane_map[$n].
