Tim Edwards e6a94449ce Modified the housekeeping SPI to generate a read strobe (or rather
status) so that between rdstb and wrstb, the SPI signals when it is
about to read or write a byte.  The back-door wishbone interface then
stalls the CPU during these periods.  That allows the CPU to continue
running while the SPI is being accessed without data collisions and
without having to stall for the entire time CSB is held low.
Because SCK is asynchronous to the clock, rare collisions are still
possible;  this is not expected to be an issue but might be worth
investigating.

Tim Edwards bdfa747145 First major update; current code passes syntax checks in iverilog
and simulates, but fails testbench (not surprising at this stage).

Tim Edwards 332f9ec2e7 Seeding with documentation of pinout and verilog RTL (mostly unchanged
from original except to remove blocks that are not supposed to be in
this repository like the processor core and the storage).
