Witness framework and per-property tracking

When using AIGER-based formal verification flows (such as the `abc` engine in
SBY), Yosys provides infrastructure for tracking individual formal
properties through the verification pipeline.

The `rename -witness` pass (run automatically by `prep`) assigns public
names to all cells that participate in the witness framework:
- Witness signal cells: ``$anyconst``, ``$anyseq``, ``$anyinit``,
``$allconst``, ``$allseq``
- Formal property cells: ``$assert``, ``$assume``, ``$cover``, ``$live``,
``$fair``, ``$check``
- Witness signal cells: `$anyconst`, `$anyseq`, `$anyinit`,
`$allconst`, `$allseq`
- Formal property cells: `$assert`, `$assume`, `$cover`, `$live`,
`$fair`, `$check`
These public names allow downstream tools to refer to individual properties by
their hierarchical path rather than by anonymous internal identifiers.

The `write_aiger -ywmap` option generates a JSON map file that includes, among
other things, ``"asserts"`` and ``"assumes"`` arrays. Each entry contains the
hierarchical witness path of the corresponding ``$assert`` or ``$assume`` cell.
This lets tools such as SymbiYosys map AIGER bad-state properties and invariant
hierarchical witness path of the corresponding `$assert` or `$assume` cell.
This lets tools such as SBY map AIGER bad-state properties and invariant
constraints back to individual formal properties, enabling features like
per-property pass/fail reporting (e.g. ``abc pdr`` with ``--keep-going`` mode).

The `write_smt2` backend similarly uses the public witness names when emitting
``yosys-smt2-assert`` and ``yosys-smt2-assume`` comments. Cells whose
``hdlname`` attribute contains the ``_witness_`` marker are treated as having
private names for comment purposes, keeping solver output clean.
