This PR aims to further enhance FlooNoC by implementing offload reductions.
hw: add sequential reduction controller to FlooNoC
hw: add generic offload port to all routers
hw: added small parametrisable ALU to FlooNoC which can be used to run simple Integer operation (Add / Mul / Min / Max)
misc: reduction controller supports multiple configuration depending on area / performance requirements.
dataflow: any offload collective flit is brunch off at the input of the router and forwarded to the reduction logic. The final reduced flit will be merged into the normal data-stream with an additional slave port on the reduction arbiter / wormhole arbiter.
