/*
 * Generic Frontend Framework
 *
 * This is designed to make it possible to build frontends for parsing any format isomorphic to Yosys JSON [1]
 * with maximal inlining and minimal need for overhead such as runtime polymorphism or extra wrapper types.
 *
 * [1] http://www.clifford.at/yosys/cmd_write_json.html
 *
 * The frontend should implement a class referred to as FrontendType that defines the following type(def)s and
 * functions:
 *
 * Types:
 *   ModuleDataType: corresponds to a single entry in "modules"
 *   ModulePortDataType: corresponds to a single entry in "ports" of a module
 *   CellDataType: corresponds to a single entry in "cells"
 *   NetnameDataType: corresponds to a single entry in "netnames"
 *   BitVectorDataType: corresponds to a signal/constant bit vector (e.g. a "connections" field)
 *
 * Functions:
 *
 *   void foreach_module(Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, const ModuleDataType &mod);
 *       for each module in the netlist
 *
 *   void foreach_port(const ModuleDataType &mod, Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, const ModulePortDataType &port);
 *       for each port of mod
 *
 *   void foreach_cell(const ModuleDataType &mod, Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, const CellDataType &cell)

 *   void foreach_netname(const ModuleDataType &mod, Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, const NetnameDataType &cell);
 *       for each netname entry of mod
 *
 *   PortType get_port_dir(const ModulePortDataType &port) const;
 *       gets the PortType direction of a module port
 *
 *   int get_array_offset(const ModulePortDataType &port) const;
 *       gets the start bit number of a port or netname entry
 *
 *   bool is_array_upto(const ModulePortDataType &port) const;
 *       returns true if a port/net is an "upto" type port or netname entry
 *
 *   const BitVectorDataType &get_port_bits(const ModulePortDataType &port) const;
 *       gets the bit vector of a module port
 *
 *   const std::string& get_cell_type(const CellDataType &cell) const;
 *       gets the type of a cell
 *
 *   void foreach_attr(const {ModuleDataType|CellDataType|ModulePortDataType|NetnameDataType} &obj, Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, const Property &value);
 *       for each attribute on a module, cell, module port or net
 *
 *   void foreach_param(const CellDataType &obj, Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, const Property &value);
 *       for each parameter of a cell
 *
 *   void foreach_setting(const ModuleDataType &obj, Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, const Property &value);
 *       for each module-level setting
 *
 *   void foreach_port_dir(const CellDataType &cell, Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, PortType dir);
 *       for each port direction of a cell
 *
 *   void foreach_port_conn(const CellDataType &cell, Func) const;
 *       calls Func(const std::string &name, const BitVectorDataType &conn);
 *       for each port connection of a cell
 *
 *   const BitVectorDataType &get_net_bits(const NetnameDataType &net) const;
 *       gets the BitVector corresponding to the bits entry of a netname field
 *
 *   int get_vector_length(const BitVectorDataType &bits) const;
 *       gets the length of a BitVector
 *
 *   bool is_vector_bit_constant(const BitVectorDataType &bits, int i) const;
 *       returns true if bit <i> of bits is constant
 *
 *   char get_vector_bit_constval(const BitVectorDataType &bits, int i) const;
 *       returns a char [01xz] corresponding to the constant value of bit <i>
 *
