User-requested hardware notification so the ESP32 can be
interrupt-driven instead of polling STATUS in a loop.
spi_host_bridge_v3.v: new job_out_done input (wired from
neural_director_packed.v, already available at the top level) and new
data_ready_n output. A sticky irq_pending register sets on job_out_done
(latched, survives the pulse itself deasserting) and clears when the
host completes a real STATUS (0x20) or REG_READ(0x02) transaction -
reusing cs_rose, the same real transaction-complete event the module
already relies on elsewhere, not a new mechanism. dir_error is ORed in
live/combinational, not latched. SET has priority over CLEAR on the
rare cycle both coincide.
Real pin: D14, bank 15 (already 3.3V, alongside the SPI bus and
sys_rst) - tentative, not yet a final board decision. Deliberately
added after EXP-0084's own P&R iterations settled, so it didn't
complicate that already-tight I/O/VCCO budget mid-fix. Its own real
P&R verification is deferred to the next real P&R run (already needed
to close EXP-0084's clock-period timing gap), not run separately
against a config already known to fail timing for unrelated reasons.
Real verification: tb_spi_host_bridge_v3.v extended with 10 new checks
(idle state, sticky set, mid-transaction hold, real-acknowledge clear,
unrelated-register non-acknowledge, dir_error live assert/clear).
49/49 PASS.

Implements the user's board architecture: config flash wired
exclusively to the FPGA, host (ESP32) reaches it only through the
FPGA. flash_spi_master.v is a plain byte-wide SPI master using
STARTUPE2 to reclaim CCLK after configuration (the real, Xilinx-
documented "indirect SPI flash programming" technique, UG470 p94-96).
New opcode 0x40 FLASH_XFER in spi_host_bridge_v3.v relays bytes
byte-for-byte between host and the physical flash bus -- the host
decides the exact SPI NOR command sequence (verified against the real
W25Q32JV datasheet), this RTL knows nothing about flash semantics.
Found and fixed two real bugs during verification: a byte-assembly
off-by-one in flash_spi_master.v, and a genuine protocol-latency bug
in the FLASH_XFER opcode's response timing (needed 2 trailing margin
bytes, not 1 -- the internal flash transfer doesn't start until the
triggering byte finishes, so 1 byte of margin isn't enough). 39/39
tests pass end to end (host SPI -> bridge -> flash_spi_master ->
behavioral flash model).
Wired into n2_system_ddr3_top.v with real pin constraints (flash_mosi
=K17/flash_miso=K18/flash_cs_n=L13, the same pins reserved-but-unused
in EXP-0075) and BITSTREAM.CONFIG.PERSIST=FALSE made explicit.

Found a real, previously-masked bug in spi_host_bridge_v3.v's physical
layer (inherited unchanged from V1/V2): the bit_count==0 MISO bypass
corrupts the last bit of any multi-byte response whose value happens
to end in a 1 -- every prior test's response data coincidentally
ended in 0, hiding it until the new DEVICE_ID register (0x...01)
exposed it via a real bit-exact mismatch. Fixed by removing the
bypass (verified unnecessary for this protocol's actual usage).
Added REG_WRITE/REG_READ opcodes (0x30/0x31) and a register file
(DEVICE_ID/CONTROL/STATUS/N_SLOTS) for general device control beyond
job submission, per explicit user request. Full regression: 38/38
PASS, including new cases specifically targeting the bit-corruption
bug for both REG_READ and READ_MEM.
New hardware/v3/constraints/n2_system_ddr3_top.xdc: reserves the
FPGA's dedicated Master-SPI config-flash pins (found colliding with
auto-placed design ports in the real routed checkpoint) and assigns
the neural-processor management SPI to real, verified-free, edge-
adjacent pins on xc7a100tcsg324-2.

Forked from V2's spi_host_bridge.v after finding two real protocol
mismatches: WRITE_JOB carried dependency-manager fields (required/
producer_ids) that neural_director_packed.v's job_in_* port doesn't
have (no dependency manager exists in V3 -- dropped, disclosed, not
silently ignored), and WRITE_MEM/READ_MEM assumed a word-granularity
host-arb port V3 never had (now wired through host_mem_bridge.v,
EXP-0071). Physical SPI layer carried over unchanged.
Verified standalone: 18/18 tests, 0 errors, including a case
exercising the narrower 25-bit MEM_ADDR_WIDTH's own top bit.
