Yosys doesn't support unpacked array ports. Changed llr_in/llr_input
from `logic signed [Q-1:0] llr[N]` to `logic [N*Q-1:0] llr` packed
vector. Also fixed blocking assignment in INIT loops (Verilator
BLKLOOPINIT requirement).

Replace unpacked array parameter with 8 individual ports.
Icarus Verilog (used by cocotb) doesn't support unpacked
dimensions in task/function ports.

- config.json: 20ns clock period, AREA 2 synth strategy, 2800x1760um die
- pin_order.cfg: Wishbone pins on south, outputs on north
- base_ldpc.sdc: Caravel-calibrated timing constraints adapted for LDPC ports
- Updated wrapper config to reference ldpc_decoder_top macro

- Magnitude overflow for -32 in cn_min_sum (clamp to 31)
- Converged flag cleared prematurely in IDLE (move to INIT)
- msg_cn2vn zeroing race in first iteration (bypass old_msg read)
All 20 test vectors now pass bit-exact against Python model.

Prevents magnitude 0 from unconnected columns dominating the
minimum computation and zeroing all CN->VN messages.

Add test_data.py (cocotb Python module) and test_vectors.h (C header)
with 20 test vectors from the Python behavioral model. LLR data is
packed 5 per 32-bit word matching the wishbone interface format.
11 converged vectors for positive testing, 9 non-converged for
negative testing.

- Copy ldpc_decoder_core.sv and wishbone_interface.sv from standalone RTL
- Create Caravel-adapted ldpc_decoder_top.sv with USE_POWER_PINS,
32-bit address (lower 8 bits passed through), and wb_sel_i port
- Replace user_proj_example in user_project_wrapper.v with LDPC decoder
instantiation, active-high to active-low reset inversion, and tie-offs
for unused outputs (la_data_out, io_out, io_oeb, user_irq[2:1])
- Update includes.rtl.caravel_user_project with LDPC RTL file list
- Fix invalid hex literal in VERSION_ID (0xLD -> 0x1D)
