This PR adds support to Project XRay supporting Xilinx series 7 FPGAs.
Currently I'm testing with Kintex 7 and a QMTech board.
The work is based on https://github.com/kintex-chatter/xc7k325t-blinky-nextpnr and is in draft (although working) state.
The backend has hard-coded paths for the databases. This is still required to be able to use Docker container flow. We need to improve this.Managed to fix the environment variables. Works on Docker but needs testing for locally installed tools.
The supporting files to run this are at https://gist.github.com/carlosedp/a7b4386b41ffdf60873c05eeae7155ec. There is the edalize launcher script with some changes due to how quotes are handled which I plan to send a PR too.
There is also a Dockerfile to build the toolchain container image and the databases. @umarcor once it's in a more stable and/or upstream state, we can integrate to hdlc repo.
The idea is to open this for discussion.
