// ============================================================
// M1 testbench (docs/v2-description.md §20/§21): hardware/v2/rtl/
// neural_processor.v vs the frozen V1 golden reference
// (hardware/v1/rtl/neuron_parallel.v + mac8.v + mac_unit.v),
// instantiated side by side and driven with IDENTICAL operands, then
// compared bit-exact.
//
// V1's neuron_parallel presents its whole N_INPUTS-wide input/weight
// bus at once (single `start` pulse); V2's neural_processor streams
// P_IN-wide tiles with a valid/ready/last handshake. This testbench
// bridges the two: it holds the full N_INPUTS-wide vector locally and
// feeds it to V1 in one shot while streaming it to V2 tile-by-tile,
// then asserts V1.y === V2.result_data for every case.
//
// Coverage (§20):
//   - functional: regular positive/negative/mixed vectors, several
//     N_INPUTS/tile counts;
//   - extreme INT8 (§20 list): -128, -127, -1, 0, 1, 126, 127, and an
//     all-poison saturating case;
//   - both activations (ACT_NONE, ACT_RELU);
//   - back-to-back jobs with NO idle gap (throughput check: a new
//     job's first tile is presented the very cycle after the previous
//     job's NP_DONE), proving tiles can stream without the outer FSM
//     stalling between jobs.
//
// NOT covered here: operand-arrival protocol misuse (an operand sent
// while this processor cannot consume it). See
// hardware/v2/logs/decisions.log DEC-0003 -- that check was removed
// from neural_processor.v after triggering a reproducible Icarus
// Verilog v13.0 evaluation bug (hardware/v2/logs/errors.log ERR-0002)
// and is deferred to the Neural Director (M5), the actual owner of
// operand-issue arbitration.
//
// Icarus Verilog v13.0 toolchain note (hardware/v2/logs/errors.log
// ERR-0001): a task (or any named `begin:label` block) whose FIRST
// executable statement is a blocking assignment, called immediately
// after a time-consuming statement in the caller with no intervening
// `@(posedge clk)`, can silently fail to make that assignment visible
// to other modules at the next clock edge (reproduced in isolation
// down to a 3-line task; fixed by always beginning such a task with an
// explicit `@(posedge clk);` before its first assignment). run_case
// below follows this rule -- the same defensive convention already
// used throughout hardware/v1/sim's own tasks (e.g.
// neuron_parallel_tb.v's run_neuron), which is why V1's own tests were
// never affected.
