* New: In CRL, implement a GDSII parser. The complete syntax is supported,
but only a few subset is really taken into account. It is intended to
load the layout of standard cells only. The interface of the cell is
provided through a LEF file and it complete layout through the GDSII.
The loader work in a Library way. It takes a Hurricane library as
argument and search in the GDSII library structures with a name
matching the Cell of the library and complete them.
* Change: In Hurricane::Component, put the Contour methods at Component
level so we can use them in a generic way in the CellWidget drawing
primitives.
* New: Hurricane::Rectilinear polygon, for small rectlinear polygons.
Should be less than 100 vertexes. For bigger ones, use Polygon
which allows slanted egdes.
* Bug: In CRL, freepdk_45/technology.conf, there seems to be an incoherency
bettween the GDSII layer numbers as defined in the Cadence FreeePDK45.tf
file and the one used in the supplied layout of the GDSII cells.
For now, we align on the GDSII cells to get nice layouts, but it
has to checked.
* New: In Hurricane::Diagonal, new object to represent 45° and 135°
segments (X routing). Althought they have source & target, they
are not articulated like Horizontal & Vertical, due to the
combined displacement of X and Y (diagonal).
Maybe we should create a common class for all the polygons
to make "::getContour()" a method.
Now we could represent self capacitances and high frequency
wires.
