* New: In Isobar::PyResistor, manage type RPOLYH and RPOLY2PH.
* Change: In Hurricane::Resistor, rename plate nets from "PIN1" and
"PIN2" into "t1" and "t2" (try to respect uniform naming scheme).
* New: In Karakaze/AnalogDesign.py, support for reading Resistor
parameters.
* New: In Orosshi, ResistorSnake.py imported from Mariam Tlili's work
and associated Resistor.py to make parameter conversion.
Currently we only uses vertical layout for resistors.
Added METAL2 horizontal terminals for resistors.
In the Cell/Instance hierarchy, the "terminal" and "leaf cell" concepts
where not clearly defined and partially overlapping. Now, "Terminal" is
the refer to the physical hierarchy (layout) and "TerminalNetlist" to
the logical hierarchy (netlist). The logical hierarchy can be less deep
than the physical one thanks to a Cell dedicated cell flags. Collections
related to the physical hierarchy keep their old names, the one related
to the logical hierarchy are renamed from "Leaf" to "TerminalNetlist".
The name "Leaf" was too ambiguous (leaf for *what* hierarchy).
* Change: In Hurricane::Device, set the "TerminalNetlist" flag once and
for all. No need set it in all the derived classes again.
* New: In Hurricane::MultiCapacitor, added new parameter "dummy" to
create dummies around the capacity matrix.
* Change: In Hurricane::Cell, remove "Leaf" related methods, replace
them by "TerminalNetlist" one, especially Collections. Now we have
two clear sets of Collections to walkthough the layout or the
netlist.
Change the "Terminal" flag into "TerminalNetlist".
* Change: In Hurricane::CellCollections, rename "Leaf" into
"TerminalNetlist" collections and apply the new semantic to the
locators.
* Change: In Hurricane::DataBase, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Change: In Hurricane::DeepNet, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Change: In Hurricane::HyperNet, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Change: In Hurricane::Instance, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Change: In Hurricane::Viewer::HierarchyInformations, Leaf to
TerminalInstance renaming.
* Change: In CRL::AllianceFramework, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Change: In CRL::Catalog, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Change: In CRL::ApParser, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Change: In EtesianEngine::AddFeeds, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Bug: In EtesianEngine::resetPlacement, move there the loop over
non terminal netlist instances to flag fully placed sub-blocks
as terminal for the netlist. Only then remove the feed cells
from unplaced instances. Previously, the feed cells where stripped
even from already placed instances.
* Change: In Katana, Leaf to TerminalInstance renaming.
* Bug: In Bora::PyDSlicingNode, allow the range parameter to be the
Python None object when we do not want to pass one but need to
have it as positional parameter.
* Change: In Cumulus/clocktree/ClockTree.py, Leaf to TerminalInstance
renaming.
* New: In Analog, added Analog::ResitorFamily & Analog::Resistor classes.
* New: In Analog, added inspector support for all Parameter classes.
* New: In Analog, new FloatParameter class (for resistor value).
* New: In CRL/etc/scn6m_deep_09/devices.py, added resistor device.
* New: In Oroshi, support for Resistors, stub for ResistorSnake generator.
* New: In Bora::DNodeSets, added support for Resistor devices.
* Change: In Bora::DSlicingNode, rename setNFing()/getNFing() into
setBoxSetIndex()/getBoxSetIndex() for semantic coherency.
* New: In Karakaze/python/AnalogDesign.py, added support for Resistor.
Change in addDevice(), the span which was only meaningful for
transistor devices is replaced by a parameter argument.
The parameter argument has to be consistent with the device type.
