feat(v2): M3 activation/weight/result buffers, real BRAM mapping
Implements M3: three parametric dual-port buffers for the §12 data-plane (Input/Weight/Result), reusing the proven BRAM-inference idiom from the frozen hardware/v1/rtl/act_buffer.v (synchronous write, synchronous REGISTERED read, no reset on the read register -- keeps Yosys off the LUT-RAM path). Verified with Verilator: 10/10 tests pass (write-then-read correctness, extreme INT8 round-tripping, weight_buffer's full 64-bit tile width round-tripping, undisturbed re-reads). Real synthesis at two depths per module (6 configs total): 0 CHECK problems, every configuration correctly infers DP16KD (never LUT-RAM). Non-obvious real finding: weight_buffer's BRAM cost is driven by its P_IN*DATA_WIDTH tile width, not its DEPTH -- an 8x depth reduction (512->64) left DP16KD usage unchanged at 2, while activation_buffer/result_buffer (byte-wide) scale as naively expected (2->1). All default-depth configs PASS at 80MHz with large margin (287-367 MHz) via real nextpnr-ecp5 place&route.

// FPGA-Neural V2 -- Weight Buffer (M3, docs/v2-description.md §14)
|

//
|
||||
// Holds the "Weight Buffer" of the §12 data-plane diagram. Unlike
|
||||
// activation_buffer (one INT8 per signal id), each address here holds
|
||||
// one WHOLE TILE of P_IN weights -- exactly the width a Neural
|
||||
// Processor (M1) consumes per cycle on its weight_data port, so the
|
||||
// Memory Manager (M4) can feed a processor one tile/cycle without any
|
||||
// additional muxing/serialization at this buffer's boundary (§7:
|
||||
// avoid big dynamic muxes).
|
||||
//
|
||||
// Same BRAM-inference idiom as activation_buffer.v /
|
||||
// hardware/v1/rtl/act_buffer.v (dual-port, Port A sync write, Port B
|
||||
// sync REGISTERED read, no reset on the read register). DEPTH (in
|
||||
// TILES, not individual weights) is fully parametric.
