This adds the Clock() build DSL element, and adds a resource manager
function add_clock_constraint() that takes a Pin or a Signal.
Note that not all platforms, in particular not any nextpnr platforms
at the moment, can add constraints on arbitrary signals.
Fixes#86.
This commit:
* moves lists of universally useful imports from `nmigen` to
`nmigen.hdl` and `nmigen.lib`, reimporting them in `nmigen`;
* replaces lots of imports from individual parts of `nmigen.hdl`
with a star import from `nmigen.hdl`;
* replaces imports in tests with what we expect downstream code
to use;
* adds some missing imports in `nmigen.formal`.
Although a dir="oe" pin is generally equivalent to dir="io" pin with
the i* signal(s) disconnected, they are not equivalent, because some
pins may not be able to support input buffers at all, either because
there are no input buffers, or because the input buffers are consumed
by some other resource.
E.g. this can happen on iCE40 when the input buffer is consumed by
a PLL.

This provides an escape hatch for the case where the nMigen platform
code is not flexible enough, and a IO buffer primitive needs to be
instantiated directly.
This is necessary because on some platforms, like iCE40, extras
become parameters on an IO primitive, since the constraint file
format is not expressive enough for all of them.
In the simple cases, a Pin record consisting of exactly one field
is equivalent in every way to this single field. In the more complex
case however, it can be used as a record, making the code more robust
such that it works with both bidirectional and unidirectional pins.
The main purpose of this rework is cleanup, to avoid specifying
the direction of input ports in an implicit, ad-hoc way using
the named ports and ports dictionaries.
While working on this I realized that output ports can be connected
to anything that is valid on LHS, so this is now supported too.
test_signed and test_coding are adjusted slightly to account for
differences in comb propagation between the simulators; we might want
to revert that eventually.
