The AGPL was mostly a placeholder until I determined a better license to
use. TBH I wasn't expecting that anyone would find this repo.

There are several places where memories are used for parametrization
purposes, but I intend them to be synthesized to registers. Silence
warnings about them by explicitly annotating these variables.

In order to move data between MIIs without implementing a MAC, we need
some kind of elastic buffer to bring the data into the transmit "clock
(enable) domain." Implement one. It's based on a classic shift-register
FIFO, with the main difference being the MII interfaces and the
elasticity (achieved by delaying asserting RX_DV until we reach the
WATERMARK). We use a register-based buffer because we only need to deal
with an under-/over-flow of 5 or so clocks for a 2000-byte packet. The
per-stage resource increase works out to 6 FFs and 1 LUT, which is
pretty much optimal.
