Disable registers in the register map which are not needed for this core.
This reduces the utilization of the core.

Not all peripherals use the GPIO register settings, but the registers still
take up a fair amount of space in the register map. Add options to allow to
disable them when not needed. This helps to reduce the utilization for
peripherals where these features are not needed.

Depending on whether the core is configured for AXI4 or AXI3 mode the width
of the awlen/arlen signal is either 8 or 4 bit. At the moment this is only
considered in top-level module and all other modules use 8 bit internally.
This causes warnings about truncated signals in AXI3 mode, to resolve this
forward the width of the signal through the core.

Declaring local parameters in the module parameter list is not valid
verilog. For some reasons Vivado accepts it nevertheless so the code has
worked so far. But this is not true for other tools, so move the local
parameter definitions inside the module body.

For experimentation, to solve a constraint scoping issue, split up the
ad_axi_ip_constraint file into separate constraints file, in function
of there parent module.
It seems that in the latest version a constant of "0" is no longer a valid
enablement dependency and "false" has be used instead.
Not setting the enablement dependency correctly results in the AXI port to
be assumed to be read-write rather than just read or write. This will
generate unnecessary logic for example in interconnects to which the DMA
controller is connected.

Xilinx recommends that all synchronizer flip-flops have
their ASYNC_REG property set to true in order to preserve the
synchronizer cells through any logic optimization during synthesis
and implementation.
