Cores now have an extra CoreParam, useSupervisor which was set to
the default false. Whether a core has supervisor mode is the union
of this and useVM which defaults true so not change was made by this
addition.
BusTopologies are now set with the Config system rather than a system
mixin and so all configs now include the config most similar to the
previous mixin
Testchipip was updated to be able to replace the systembus, in this
new config system, with a ring bus.
The L2 cache repo needed a similar update on how to find the buses.
It currently points to the ucb-bar fork
Treadle is bumped to its release branch

On computers with limited resources (like main memory) the elaboration will fail with the message 'make: *** [firrtl_temp] Error 137'. Since no further explaination of the error is given, its meaning should be mentioned in the docs.
[WIP] Minimally elaborating design
Bring up a feature-complete Chipyard stage
Pull in Makefrag generation; Bump submodules
Update config generation, and global reset scheme
Bump submodules; clean up
Bump FireSim
Remove some unhygenic comments / WS
Remove the rocketchip subproject
[CI] Lengthen ariane tests timeout
Address some remaining reviewer comments
[firechip] Refresh a Field that cannot be used across repeated instantiations
Bump all submodules
The 'debug' rule is currently cleaning out the non-debug-model directory
rather than the debug-model directory. This commit fixes that, and
changes both the debug and non-debug rules to use the variables defined
for referring to these two model directories.

This adds an additional layer (ChipTop) between the System module and the TestHarness. The IOBinder API is now changed to take only a single parameter (an Any) and return a 3 things: The IO port(s), the IO cell(s), and a function to call inside the test harness, which is analogous to the old IOBinder function, except that it takes a TestHarness object as an argument instead of (clock, reset, success).
* A new Top-level module, ChipTop, has been created. ChipTop instantiates a "system" module specified by BuildSystem.
* BuildTop now builds a ChipTop dut module in the TestHarness by default
* A new BuildSystem key has been added, which by default builds DigitalTop (previously just called Top)
* The IOBinders API has changed. IOBinders are now called inside of ChipTop and return a tuple3 of (IO ports, IO cells, harness functions). The harness functions are now called inside the TestHarness (this is analogous to the previous IOBinder functions).
* IO cell models have been included in ChipTop. These can be replaced with real IO cells for tapeout, or used as-is for simulation.
* The default for the TOP make variable is now ChipTop (was Top)
* [make] split up specific make vars/targets into frags
* [make] move dramsim and max-cycles into SIM_FLAGS
* [misc] move ariane configs to configs/ folder
