Summary

  This release adds support and documentation for rapid prototyping
  of Verilog designs in Ruby.

Details

  * Support for prototyping designs in Ruby, before they are
    implemented in Verilog, has been added.

    o The same specification can be used to verify both prototype
      and design! :slight_smile:

    o The tutorial in the user manual has been updated to discuss
      prototyping.

      + Prototypes have been added to the counter example.

  * The directory structure has been reorganized as follows:
    o ext → src
