CARAVEL TOPLEVEL ECO
====================
ECOs were done on top level caravel for several reasons
1. `porb_h_in` shorted with `por_l_in` because it was a floating wire
2. `mgmt_gpio_oeb` was not shorted with `mprj_io_one` in some instances of `gpio_control_block`, this is due to an issue with the router
The flow to generate caravel top level:
