* Change: In Hurricane::Script, when running a script, no longer do it
inside a Python sun-interpreter, use the current one. This way we
no longer have our modules initialized twice or more, which was
starting to be unmanageable (with the NDA support).
The settings were re-read multiple time to the same value, so it
was working, but still...
I hope I didn't left some dangling Python objects now.
* Bug: In Hurricane::LayoutGenerator::drawLayout(), get the device abutment
box though a Pyhon object *before* finalizing which removes that objet.
* New: In cumulus/plugins/__init__.py, add a "loadPlugins()" and static
initialisation to preload plugins modules.
We use that pre-loading step to append to the module __path__ attribute
the alternate directory where a NDA covered may be found. This assume that
the directory tree under the NDA root is identical to the one under the
public root.
* New: In cumulus/plugins/chip/__init__.py, small utility function
importContants() to import the constants inside another module namespace,
to have more consise notations.
* Change: In cumulus/plugins/, in the various plugins sub-modules import
use the full path from plugins, that is, for example:
from plugins.core2chip.CoreToChip import IoPad
* Change: In Unicorn/python/unicornInit.py, no longer directly load the
plugins modules, this is now done by cumulus/plugins/__init__.py.
Instead, iterate through sys.modules for the ones starting by "plugins/"
and try to execute a Unicorn hook, if present.
* Change: In Karakaze/python/AnalogDesign.py, update for the new Instance.create()
prototype (added placement parameter).
