Description
Replaced Synlig with the Yosys-Slang plugin for Yosys for reading SystemVerilog.
Related Issue
Motivation and Context
Synlig has a lot of overhead when building with the vtr build system leading to issues when building in CI and sometimes locally. Synlig is also poorly maintained. Yosys-Slang has significantly less overhead, can easily be implemented as a plugin for yosys, and is regularly maintained.
How Has This Been Tested?
Has been tested with the vtr_reg_system_verilog tests [PASSED]
Going to test with extra tests from the Yosys-Slang repo: https://github.com/povik/yosys-slang/tree/master/tests
