* Fixes #2206

* Restore parsed MultiInfo structure in firrtl parser

* Change erroneous expected output in InfoSpec test

FileInfo compression sorts the outputted entries alphabetically, but
this test did not reflect that fact

* Fix typo in comment

* Add unit tests for file locator parsing

* Fix syntax issues and typos

* More redundant braces removed

* smt: include firrtl statement names in SMT and btor2 output

* smt: remove println

* smt: make tests run again and fix stale ones

Apparently `private` classes aren't found by th sbt test runner.

Add a new option to the FIRRTL compiler, "--start-from = <form>".  If
used, this will cause the compiler to assume that the input FIRRTL
circuit is already in the specific form.  It will then skip unnecessary
passes given this information.

E.g., if a user requests to run "firrtl -X verilog --start-from low"
then the compiler will only run transforms necessary to get from low
FIRRTL to Verilog.  Transforms necessary for ingesting FIRRTL IR will be
run if needed (checks and type/kind/flow resolution).

To implement this, a CurrentFirrtlStateAnnotation is added.  Advanced
users can use this directly to tell the FIRRTL compiler exactly what
transforms have already been run, including the ability to ignore checks
or type/kind/flow resolution if they so desire.

* Add Protocol Buffer emission export

This adds infrastructure and annotations that let a user emit a FIRRTL
circuit as a Protocol Buffer.

Fixes #1696.

* fixup! Add Protocol Buffer emission export

* make PresetRegAnnotation public

this annotation is useful outside the firrtl compiler:
- to implement a pass that creates registers which
  need to be initialized at the beginning of simulation
  (e.g., for formal verification)
- to support preset registers in treadle

* add PresetRegAnnotation test and deal with annotation correctly in RemoveReset pass

Add a compiler/emitter that can target minimal high form.  This will
produce output that only has CHIRRTL constructs removed.

LowerTypes creates a lot of mappings for the RenameMap. The built-in
.distinct of renames becomes a performance program for designs with
deeply nested Aggregates. Because LowerTypes does not create duplicate
renames, it can safely eschew the safety of using .distinct via a
private internal API.

* add os-lib to dependency.

* use os-lib in Z3ModelChecker

* fix for review by Kevin.

This function will safely wrap any unserializeable annotations in
UnserializeableAnnotations so that they can be safely serialized to JSON
for logging.
