Use SIMD intrinsics to render VCD traces.
I have measured 10-40% single threaded performance increase with VCD
tracing on SweRV EH1 and lowRISC Ibex using SSE2 intrinsics to render
the trace. Also helps a tiny bit with FST, but now almost all of the FST
overhead is in the FST library.
I have reworked the tracing routines to use more precisely sized
arguments. The nice thing about this is that the performance without the
intrinsics is pretty much the same as it was before, as we do at most 2x
as much work as necessary, but in exchange there are no data dependent
branches at all.
