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.

Make sure that the right hand side expression of assignments is not wider
than the target signal. This avoids warnings about implicit truncations.
None of these changes affect the behaviour, just fixes some warnings about
implicit signal truncation.

All the hdl (verilog and vhdl) source files were updated. If a file did not
have any license, it was added into it. Files, which were generated by
a tool (like Matlab) or were took over from other source (like opencores.org),
were unchanged.
New license looks as follows:

For the AXI stream interface we want to generate TLAST only at the end of
the transfer, rather than at the end of each burst.

We do not know which 'last' condition to use before hand, but we can pre-compute
the result for both conditions and then use them. This removes the comparison
from the already pretty long combinatorial path.
Also simplify a few expressions.

The pending_burst signal and the expression id != request_id are almost
identical. pending_burst goes high with a delay of one clock cycle, but the
important thing is that it goes low on the same clock cycle as the expression.
By using pending_burst here instead of 'id != request_id' we can reduce the
fanout of the 'id' register and improve the timing of the core.
There were a few place in the core where it assumed a 64-bit wide bus. Make this
configurable using parameters. The patch also adds support for having different
DMA bus widths on the source and destination side.

Right now there is always a period of one clock cycle where we can not transfer
any data when switching between two transfers. This patch modifies the data
mover to allow for zero latency. This fixes problems on the FMCOMMS1 platform
