PoC: PicoRV32 interrupts

A proof-of-concept of enabling PicoRV32 interrupts. Two interrupt
sources, which can be triggered by writes to memory addresses, are
added.  The design has only been simulated, not run on hardware.

Synthesis:

Ice40 LC utilization is 93% (4934/5280) when built using tkey-builder:4

Simulation:

A `tb_application_fpga_irqpoc` target is added. Running `make
tb_application_fpga_irqpoc` creates `tb_application_fpga_sim.fst` which
can be inspected in GTKWave or Surfer.

Firmware:

A simple firmware is added in `fw/irqpoc`. It enables both interrupts
and triggers each interrupt once.

Custom PicoRV32 instructions are located in `custom_ops.S`. It is
imported from upstream PicoRV32 commit:

area will trigger interrupt 30.
## `irq31_set`
Interrupt 31 trigger area. A 32-bit write to the IRQ31\_SET memory
area will trigger interrupt 31.
## Interrupts
Triggering an interrupt will cause the CPU to execute the interrupt
handler att address 0x10.
The interrupt handler is shared by IRQ30 and IRQ31. Register `x4` can
be inspected to determine the interrupt source. Each interrupt source
is assigned one bit in x4. Triggered interrupts have their bit set to
`1`.
| *Interrupt source* | *x4 bit* |
|--------------------|----------|
| IRQ30\_SET | 30 |
| IRQ31\_SET | 31 |
The return address is located in register `x3`. Calling the PicoRV32
specific instruction `retirq` exits the interrupt handler and clears
the interrupt source.
No registers are stored/restored when entering/exiting the interrupt
handler. It is up to the software to store/restore as necessary.
Interrupts can be enabled/disabled using the PicoRV32 specific
`maskirq` instruction.
