whitequark 081d9318bc ecp5: add support for both 1364.1 and LSE RAM/ROM attributes.
This commit tries to carefully follow the documented behavior of LSE
and Synplify. It will use `syn_ramstyle` attribute if there are any
write ports, and `syn_romstyle` attribute otherwise.
  * LSE supports both `syn_ramstyle` and `syn_romstyle`.
  * Synplify only supports `syn_ramstyle`, with same values as LSE.
  * Synplify also supports `syn_rw_conflict_logic`, which is not
    documented as supported for LSE.

Limitations of the Yosys implementation:
  * LSE/Synplify support `syn_ramstyle="block_ram,no_rw_check"`
    syntax to turn off insertion of transparency logic. There is
    currently no way to support multiple valued attributes in
    memory_bram. It is also not clear if that is a good idea, since
    it can cause sim/synth mismatches.
  * LSE/Synplify/1364.1 support block ROM inference from full case
    statements. Yosys does not currently perform this transformation.
  * LSE/Synplify propagate `syn_ramstyle`/`syn_romstyle` attributes
    from the module to the inner memories. There is currently no way
    to do this in Yosys (attrmvcp only works on cells and wires).

whitequark 3f4460a186 ice40: match memory inference attribute values case insensitive.
LSE/Synplify use case insensitive matching.

Limitations of the Yosys implementation:
  * LSE/Synplify appear to interpret attribute values insensitive
    to case. There is currently no way to do this in Yosys (attrmap
    can only change case of attribute names).

    syntax to turn off insertion of transparency logic. There is
