Create a common 'run_tb.sh' script to be called by every testbench.
Unify file and testbenches names.
Fix util_pack/cpack_tb.
Add parameters '-batch' and '-gui' for modelsim and xsim simulators (default is gui)
Add ascript for that generates output in xml format (used by CI tools).
The DMAC has the requirement that the length of the transfer is aligned to
the widest interface width. E.g. if the widest interface is 256 bit or 32
bytes the length of the transfer needs to be a multiple of 32.
This restriction can be relaxed for the memory mapped interfaces. This is
done by partially ignoring data of a beat from/to the MM interface.
For write access the stb bits are used to mask out bytes that do not
contain valid data.
For read access a full beat is read but part of the data is discarded. This
works fine as long as the read access is side effect free. I.e. this method
should not be used to access data from memory mapped peripherals like a
FIFO.
This means that for example the length alignment requirement of a DMA
configured for a 64-bit memory and a 16-bit streaming interface is now only
2 bytes instead of 8 bytes as before.
Note that the address alignment requirement is not affected by this. The
address still needs to be aligned to the width of the MM interface that it
belongs to.

The DMA_LENGTH_ALIGN LSBs of all length For the most part the tools are
able to deduce this using constant propagation.
But this propagation does not work across the asynchronous meta data FIFO
in the burst memory module.
Add a DMA_LENGTH_ALIGN parameter to the burst_memory module which is used
to explicitly keep the LSBs of length registers on the destination side
fixed at 1'b1. This reduces resource use and improves timing by allowing
better constant propagation and unused logic elimination.

One of the major features of the DMAC is being able to handle non matching
interface widths for the destination and source side.
Currently the test benches only support the case where the width for the
source and the destination side are the same. Extend them so that it is
possible to also test and verify setups where the width is not the same.
To accomplish this each byte memory location is treated as if it contained
the lower 8 bytes of its address. And then the written/read data is
compared to the expected data based on that.

For the memory-mapped AXI read interface the slave asserts rlast for the
last beat in a burst.
This means we don't have to count the number of beats to know when the
burst is completed but instead can use rlast. This slightly reduces the
amount of resources needed for the MM-AXI source module and given that the
beat_counter is often the bottleneck timing wise this should also improve
the timing.

The DMAC allows a transfer to be aborted. When a transfer is aborted the
DMAC shuts down as fast as possible while still completing any pending
transactions as required by the protocol specifications of the port. E.g.
for AXI-MM this means to complete all outstanding bursts.
Once the DMAC has entered an idle state a special synchronization signal is
send to all modules. This synchronization signal instructs them to flush
the pipeline and remove any stale data and metadata associated with the
aborted transfer. Once all data has been flushed the DMAC enters the
shutdown state and is ready for the next transfer.
In addition each module has a reset that resets the modules state and is
used at system startup to bring them into a consistent state.
Re-work the shutdown process to instead of flushing the pipeline re-use the
startup reset signal also for shutdown.
To manage the reset signal generation introduce the reset manager module.
It contains a state machine that will assert the reset signals in the
correct order and for the appropriate duration in case of a transfer
shutdown.
The reset signal is asserted in all domains until it has been asserted for
at least 4 clock cycles in the slowest domain. This ensures that the reset
signal is not de-asserted in the faster domains before the slower domains
have had a chance to process the reset signal.
In addition the reset signal is de-asserted in the opposite direction of
the data flow. This ensures that the data sink is ready to receive data
before the data source can start sending data. This simplifies the internal
handshaking.
This approach has multiple advantages.
* Issuing a reset and removing all state takes less time than
explicitly flushing one sample per clock cycle at a time.
* It simplifies the logic in the faster clock domains at the expense of
more complicated logic in the slower control clock domain. This allows
for higher fMax on the data paths.
* Less signals to synchronize from the control domain to the data domains
The implementation of the pause mode has also slightly changed. Pause is
now a simple disable of the data domains. When the transfer is resumed
after a pause the data domains are re-enabled and continue at their
previous state.

Move the transfer logic, including the 2d module, into its own sub-module.
This allows testing of the full transfer logic independently of the
register map logic.
The top-level module now only instantiates the register map and transfer
module, but does not have any logic on its own.
