The delay_clk is only used internally when the IODELAYs are enabled. This
means the port has no function when the IODELAYs are disabled so hide the
port in that case.

Typically when a port has a enablement dependency it also should have a
tie-off value to the port is connected to when disabled.
Make it possible to specify this tie-off value when calling
adi_set_ports_dependency().

The output data mux is used to bypass the filter when it is not used. Which
setting is used for the mux depends on the 3-bit filter_mask signal.
Registering the control logic into a single bit signal reduces the amount
of routing resources required. Since changing the filter_mask settings is
asynchronous to the processing anyway the extra clock cycle delay
introduced by this change does not affect behaviour.

Move the processing pipeline of the axi_adc_decimate core to its own
sub-module. This makes it easier to simulate the processing independent of
the register map.
Also since the filter is two instances of the same logic, one for each
channel, let the new sub-module model one channel and instantiate it twice.
This allows to change the implementation without having to change the same
code twice.

The minimum number of bits required for the adders in a CIC filter depends
on the decimation rate. Higher decimation factors require more bits. This
means for a multirate filter the size of the logic structures is determined
by the highest supported rate.
The current implementation of the filter always uses all bits of the
structure to compute the results, that means even when running with the
lowest decimation factor all the bits that are required for the highest
decimation factor are used. This will work fine as additional bits do not
affect the output of the filter.
This patch implements dynamic partial gating of the filter structure based
on the selected decimation factor. Bits that are not required for a certain
rates are gated and the carry bits are masked from propagating through the
adder chain. This results in significant power savings at smaller
decimation factors.
This means that the filter itself is now using more power the higher the
decimation rate. But this is offset by the reduced data output rate running
subsequent processing stages at a lower rate and reducing power consumption
there. This results in a more or less flat power profile regardless of
decimation factor.

Allow to split a CIC int or comb block into multiple stages and be able to
dynamically gate some of the stages. Also prevent carry propagation in
gated stages to keep the adder output constant.
This is useful for multi-rate filter where not all bits are needed all the
time.

The minimum decimation rate of the CIC block is five, this means data
arrives at the FIR filter at most every five clock cycles. The decimation
rate of the filter is two so the filter produces an output at most every
ten clock cycles. This allows for ten clock cycles to compute the result.
The current implementation of the filter uses a fully pipelined
architecture with one multiplier for each coefficient. Which then do work
for one clock cycle and sit idle for the next nine clock cycles.
Rework the filter to be sequential reducing the number of required
multipliers to one. In addition exploit the symmetric structure of the
filter to make use of the preadder reducing the required multiply
operations by two.
This significantly reduces the logic utilization of the filter as well as
moderately reduces power consumption.

The minimum decimation of the CIC block is 5. This means new data arrives
at the comb stages at most every 5 clock cycles. Rather than letting the
logic sit idle during those 4 extra cycles use it to sequentially process
the comb stages of the filter. This reduces the logic utilization of the
filter by quite a bit.

Re-implement the CIC using the basic building blocks from the util_cic
library.
This new implementation is structurally equivalent to the previous version,
but will be used as a platform for implementing changes that will improve
area and power consumtion of the filter

Currently the BRAM and data registers in the util_axis_data are ungated
when the FIFO is ready to receive data. This good for high-performance
since it reduces the number of control signals. But it is bad from a power
point of view since it causes additional reads and writes.
Change the core gate the BRAM and data register if either the consumer is
not ready to accept data or the producer has no data to offer.

Currently the IDDRs are configured in SAME_EDGE_PIPELINED mode, but then
the negative data is delayed by an additional clock cycle. This is the same
behaviour as using the IDDR in SAME_EDGE mode.
Switching to SAME_EDGE mode removes extra pipelining registers while
maintaining the same behaviour.

The current implementation doesn't quite work right when the interface
clock is slower than the trigger clock and also causes timing issues.

The read and write interfaces of a AXI bus are independent other than that
they use the same clock. Yet when connecting a single read-only and a
single write-only interface to a Xilinx AXI interconnect it instantiates
arbitration logic between the two interfaces. This is dead logic and
unnecessarily utilizes the FPGAs resources.
Introduce a new helper module that takes a read-only and a write-only AXI
interface and combines them into a single read-write interface. The only
restriction here is that all three interfaces need to use the same clock.
This module is useful for systems which feature a read DMA and a write DMA.

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.
