Reduce .rodata footprint of trace initialization (#3250)
Trace initialization (tracep->decl* functions) used to explicitly pass
the complete hierarchical names of signals as string constants. This
contains a lot of redundancy (path prefixes), does not scale well with
large designs and resulted in .rodata sections (the string constants) in
ELF executables being extremely large.

This patch changes the API of trace initialization that allows pushing
and popping name prefixes as we walk the hierarchy tree, which are
prepended to declared signal names at run-time during trace
initialization. This in turn allows us to emit repeat path/name
components only once, effectively removing all duplicate path prefixes.
On SweRV EH1 this reduces the .rodata section in a --trace build by 94%.

Additionally, trace declarations are now emitted in lexical order by
hierarchical signal names, and the top level trace initialization
function respects --output-split-ctrace.

381c87a1eb Remove VN_CAST_CONST and VN_AS_CONST.
The _CONST suffix on these macros is only lexical notation, pointer
constness can be preserved by overloading the underlying
implementations appropriately. Given that the compiler will catch
invalid const usage (trying to assign a non-const pointer to a const
pointer variable, etc.), and that the declarations of symbols should
make their constness obvious, I see no reason to keep the _CONST
flavours.

5adc856950 Tests: ignore all hashes in files_identical
Also add 'h' prefix to all printed hashes, to reduce ambiguity. No
functional change.

4ab4c0c8ba Emit parameter values as 'static constexpr' instead of enum
All parameters that are required in the output are now emitted as
'static constexpr, except for string or array of strings parameters,
which  are still emitted as 'static const' (required as std::string is
not a literal type, so cannot be constexpr).  This simplifies handling
of parameters and supports 'real' parameters.

ab4063f098 Emit implementations into separate files based on required headers.
This patch partitions AstCFuncs under an AstNodeModule based on which
header files they require for their implementation, and emits them
into separate files based on the distinct dependency sets. This helps
with incremental recompilation of the output C++.

4081a1a539 Internals: Separate emitting of C++ headers and implementation
Internal AstNodeModule headers (.h) and implementation (.cpp) files are
now emitted separately in V3EmitC::emitcHeaders() and
V3EmitC::emitcImp() respectively. No functional change intended
