+ add `mprj_io_buffer` module that is used to guide the router and buffer signals going to the IOs far from the housekeeping
+ add `caravel_core` rtl that includes all the macros of caravel
~ restructure caravel to `caravel_core` and `chip_io` that includes the padframe
~ update `caravel_clocking` rtl to include `porb` input reset signal from power-on-reset
~ update `gpio_control_block` rtl to buffer `serial_clock` and `serial_load` siganls
+ add sky130_ef_sc_hd__decap_12 decaps in the rtl of gpio_signal_buffering
+ add sky130_ef_sc_hd__decap_12 stub file for openlane; there is no
yosys-parseable verilog model for sky130_ef_sc_hd__decap_12
~ change config of gpio_signal_buffering* to add sky130_ef_sc_hd__decap_12
~ regenerate the gl netlist based on the above changes
gpio_signal_buffering_alt cell (caravan chip). This was
previously done for gpio_signal_buffering (caravel chip) but
the same thing had not previously been done for caravan.
* Corrected missing part of porb_h route in the caravan chip_io_alt
layout. Correcting the indexing of the "mprj_io_one" connections
to "mgmt_io_oeb" on the left-hand side of caravan, as they were
connecting back to the right side and making a mess of wiring,
instead of being wired locally directly to the nearest I/O.
* Apply automatic changes to Manifest and README.rst
* Corrected the unconnected mgmt_io_in inputs to housekeeping on
the caravan chip (which correspond to the GPIOs that do not exist
in caravan) by connecting them to the "zero" outputs of the
closest GPIO control blocks.
* Apply automatic changes to Manifest and README.rst

* update caravel with tying `porb_h_in` with `por_l_in` at the `mgmt_core_wrapper` in the top-level layout:
- `porb_h_in` shouldn't be left floating as it is an input to `clkbuf_16`
* add caravel-eco.gds (same as caravel.gds)
* Syntax changes that are non-functional from a synthesis perspective.
There are a few errors that are caught by commercial tools and halt
synthesis, which are handled more gracefully by the open source
tool flow. In housekeeping.v: Some wires declared after they are
used. In housekeeping_spi.v: A non-blocking "=" assignment used
where a blocking "<-" assignment was intended.
