micheleandClaude Sonnet 5 a20f1ecd73 docs: memory upgrade writeup (MEMORY_UPGRADE_64MB_N8.md) + supersede stale SDRAM docs

Adds the consolidated, authoritative record for the 64MB memory
upgrade and N_SLOTS=8 investigation (real datasheet family comparison,
RTL changes, both timing fixes with real P&R data, honest N=8 clock-
closure status, real DigiKey availability for the frozen part).

Marks HARDWARE_FREEZE.md/MEMORY_ARCHITECTURE.md/PRE_PCB_VERIFICATION.md/
PRE_PCB_CLOSURE_4POINT.md's own SDRAM-specific sections as superseded
(they describe the previous 8MB AS4C4M16SA-6TIN part) with pointers to
the new document, rather than rewriting each individually.

Formato dei log V2

Regola non negoziabile (docs/v2-description.md §25-29): ogni attività significativa (modifica, simulazione, sintesi, benchmark, decisione, errore) deve essere registrata. Nessun log viene mai sovrascritto o troncato — solo append. Nessun ID esperimento (EXP-XXXX) o decisione (DEC-XXXX) viene mai riutilizzato, anche se il risultato è un FAIL.

File

development.log — log principale di sviluppo, un'entry per ogni sessione di lavoro/milestone (creazione file, refactor, avanzamento roadmap).
architecture.log — decisioni e note di architettura a grana fine (non scelte finali — quelle vanno in decisions.log — ma esplorazioni, alternative considerate, vincoli scoperti).
simulation.log — ogni run di simulazione (Icarus/Verilator): test, vettori, cicli, PASS/FAIL, confronto bit-exact con V1, stall/memory-wait.
synthesis.log — ogni run Yosys: LUT/FF/DSP/BRAM, warning, problemi CHECK.
timing.log — ogni run nextpnr-ecp5: Fmax, percorso critico, WNS/TNS se disponibili. Fmax "ufficiale" di una configurazione = solo da qui, mai da simulazione o stima.
benchmark.log — tabelle di confronto per configurazione (Fmax, MAC/cycle, cycles/neuron, utilization, ecc.), sempre con etichetta THEORETICAL/SIMULATED/SYNTHESIZED/POST-P&R.
decisions.log — decisioni architetturali importanti, formato DEC-XXXX (vedi docs/v2-description.md §27).
experiments.log — registro principale, un EXP-XXXX per ogni esperimento end-to-end (config → sim/synth/timing → risultato), rimanda a reports/experiments/EXP-XXXX/.
errors.log — errori/bug/regressioni incontrati durante lo sviluppo V2 stesso (non i bug V1, già chiusi in hardware/v1/docs/validation/bugs.md).

Campi minimi per entry (§26)

timestamp, experiment_id (se applicabile), git_commit, session/agent,
module, configuration, action, reason, command, result, errors, decision,
next_action

Per synthesis/timing aggiungere: LUT, FF, DSP, BRAM, Fmax, critical path, WNS/TNS. Per simulazione: test, vectors, cycles, PASS/FAIL, bit-exact result, stall cycles, memory wait, utilization.
