* Move all Python stuff under a common Python namespace "coriolis".
* Instead of having a series subtrees for each tool, integrate
everything in one common tree. So now, all components can be
located either with an absolute path from "coriolis" or, inside
cross-reference themselves through relatives imports.
* As a consequence, we only need to add ".../site-packages/coriolis/"
to the PYTHONPATH, and not a whole bunch of subdirectories.
And nothing, if installed in-system.
* The tree of free technologies configuration files is also moved
below "coriolis/technos" instead of "/etc".
* Supressed "cumulus" level for the plugins.
* All python modules are rewritten using relative imports except
for the configuration files that uses absolute import as they
can be cloned outside of the tree to serve as templates.
* Change: In boostrap/FindPythonSitePackages, include "/coriolis" in
Python_CORIOLISARCH and Python_CORIOLISLIB.
Provide a Python_SITELIB *without* "/coriolis" appended.
* Change: In cumulus/plugins/__init__.loadPlugins(), must prefix modules
read in the plugins directory by "coriolis.plugins.". No longer need
to add their path to sys.path.
* Change: In crlcore/python/technos/nodeX/*/devices.py, the scripts of
the layouts generators must be prefixed by "coriolis.oroshi.".
* Change: In CRL::System CTOR, no longer add the pathes of the various
plugins to sys.path. Only "site-packages/coriolis/".
* New: In Utilities::Path::toPyModePath(), new method to convert a
filesystem path into a python module path.
Examples:
"coriolis/plugins/block" --> "coriolis.plugins.block".
"coriolis/plugins/rsave.py" --> "coriolis.plugins.rsave".
* Change: In katanaEngine::_runKatanaEngine(), rename the hook script
initHook.py. No longer need to modify sys.path.
* Change: In BoraEngine::_runBoraEngine(), rename the hook script
initHook.py. No longer need to modify sys.path.
* Change: In UnicornGui::_runUnicornInit(), rename the hook script
initHook.py. No longer need to modify sys.path.
* Change: In cumulus.plugins.chip.constants, put the constants
outside __init__.py to avoid a loop at initialization.
When placing a vertical M1 (and setting it's axis), the perpandiculars
M2 extremities changes, and they have a VIA. If they are already placed
too, they may silently create a stacked VIAs because the track markers
of the perpendiculars are not taken into account. Now, force to rip them
up so the markers will be re-read. If no stacked VIAs has been created,
the segment will be re-put at it's previous place, otherwise it will be
placed on another track.
* New: Track::hasViaMarker(), check if a marker of a Net is under a
given interval (so we can know we are about to create a VIA stack).
* New: Manipulator::avoidStackedVias(), ripup perpandiculars to the
current segment that *may* create stacked VIAs. That is perpandicular
in the *up* layer which begin or end on the moved vertical.
* New: In SegmentFsm::insertInTrack(), bindTotrack() & moveToTrack(),
call Manipulator::avoidStackedVias(), if activated.
* Change: In NegociateWidow/loadRoutingPads(), no longer exclude clock
nets. So the TrackMarkers are created for the root net.
