Lars-Peter Clausen 5aa11feb48 axi_dmac: Change BRAM REGCEB constraint to set_false_path
According to the documentation when using a BRAM block in SDP mode the
REGCEB pin is not used and should be connected to GND. The tools though
when inferring a BRAM connect REGCEB to the same signal REGCEA. This causes
issues with timing verification since the REGCEB pin is associated with the
write clock whereas the REGCEA pin is associated with the read clock.

Until this is fixed in the tools mark all paths to the REGCEB pin as false
paths.

Lars-Peter Clausen 91bb54467b axi_dmac: Generate per core instance constraint file
When having multiple DMA cores sharing the same constraint file Vivado
seems to apply the constraints from the first core to all the other cores
when re-running synthesis and implementation from within the Vivado GUI.

This causes wrong timing constraints if the DMA cores have different
configurations. To avoid this issue use a TTCL template that generates a
custom constraint file for each DMA core instance.

This also allows us to drop the asynchronous clock detection hack from the
constraint file and move it to the template and only generate the CDC
constraints if the clock domains are asynchronous.
