A typical use of `bugpoint` would involve a script with a pass under
test, e.g.:
flowmap -relax -optarea 100
and would be invoked as:
bugpoint -yosys ./yosys -script flowmap.ys -clean -cells
This replaces the current design with the minimal design that still
crashes the `flowmap.ys` script.
`bugpoint` can also be used to perform generic design minimization
using `select`, e.g. the following script:
select i:* %x t:$_MUX_ %i -assert-max 0
would remove all parts of the design except for an unbroken path from
an input to an output port that goes through exactly one $_MUX_ cell.
(The condition is inverted.)
