Use Published Chisel, FIRRTL, Treadle, FIRRTLInterpreter packages instead of building from source.

[davidbiancolin]

There's still lots of cleanup that can be done, but this is most of the work.

Two warts:

• FIreSim needs classes from firrtl test. I don't really want to build FIRRTL from source just for this so i might just copy those sources directly in to FireSIm.
  • Copied into tree.
• We're still building chisel-testers from source. I suspect we can pull this in too once we've bumped to 3.5 and friends though.

TODO:

• Remove unused SBT code
• Probably bump FireSim and rebase, before considering a merge
• Fix FIRRTL test handling in FireSim.
• Remove sriracha + java command line options

Release Notes

Why are you using .4 for other things but 3.4.1 and 1.4.1 for chisel3 and firrtl? I'll note that using chisel-iotesters 1.5.4 might override the chisel3 to 3.4.4 anyway, you should check this in sbt with fullClasspath to see what actual jars you're using.

[jackkoenig]

It is also possible that because you're giving chisel3 directly though it might pick your version.

[davidbiancolin]

I just picked the versions we had submoduled in. Looking at the class path FIRRTL 1.4.4 is showing up in some projects likely because of the first three dependencies. I can bump to chisel 3.4.4 and FIRRTL 1.4.4 but i was scared of changing too much, especially given this is going to be quickly followed by a 3.5 bump.

[davidbiancolin]

Bumped to X.4.4.

I would confirm what Jack said. But overall LGTM
