This commit adds the '--simbenchmark' option to the regression test compile command.
The option is not intended as a fully-fledged benchmarking infrastructure, but rather a
utility for easily generating cycle- and execution time information when executing a verilated test.
As an example use case, the included test file shows how optimization level is varied across
three different builds+simulations, with the statistics for each run output to the same file in
the output directory.
Future work:
- 'sim_time' in the generated top-level main file should be a parameter.
- Given the above, the test execution script from verilog-sim-benchmark can be integrated
to generate better estimates of cycles/second through varying 'sim_time' over multiple executions.
