* Fix widths for literal values in Bundle literals (#4082)

* Fix widths for literal values in Bundle literals

Previously, the user-specified (or unspecified minimum width) of the
literal would be used in some operations like concatenation.

* Implicitly truncate too-wide literals in Bundle literals

This is to fix a bug in concatenation without breaking things relying on
implicit truncation. This will be a warning in newer versions of Chisel.

* [chiselsim] Better fix for CIRCT 1.66- and 1.66+ (#3893)

Change the way ChiselSim moves files to track and not move files which may
be duplicated in both the default black box filelist and in the main
CIRCT-produced filelist.  Previously, this was working because a java.nio
exception was being ignored.  However, this may have been hiding bugs
where the filelist was actually pointing at a file that did not exist.

This commit also does some heavy cleanup of the code for moving files to only
use java.nio methods as opposed to relying on doing string manipulations of
paths.  The logic is intended to be the exact same as before.

* Fix ChiselStage and Builder handling of logging (#3895)

Previously, object circt.stage.ChiselStage was ignoring the Logger.
Also, Chisel was not creating its own logger scope which could lead to
clobbering of the Console when running invoking Chisel in the same
process multiple times.

Fix various places we had to workaround this behavior and fix tests
checking --log-level debug.

Co-authored-by: Jack Koenig <koenig@sifive.com>

Fix an incorrect assumption in ChiselSim that a 'filelist.f' will exist
that includes all modules, _including blackboxes_, in the design.  Change
this to try to also copy files from the black box filelist.  This makes
ChiselSim work with CIRCT 1.66 and earlier (which put everything in
'filelist.f') and CIRCT 1.66+ (which does not include blackboxes in
'filelist.f').

Note that this is intended as a temporary solution until FIRRTL has a rock
solid ABI that is implemented by CIRCT where all modules can be discovered
under an arbitrary public module.

See CIRCT changes here: https://github.com/llvm/circt/pull/6729

Previously, it was not calling .ref. It was thus not properly:

3. Reifying the clock if its a view

Note that RegInit() was already correctly calling .ref.
