When IdString refcounting was expensive, it made sense to pass it by const reference
instead of by value, to avoid refcount churn. Now that IdString is not refcounted,
it's slightly more efficient to pass it by value.
This fixes some edge cases the previous version didn't handle properly
by simplifying the logic of determining directly driven wires and
representatives to use as buffer inputs.
This is a complete rewrite of the RTLIL-kernel-side bufnorm code. This
is done to support inout ports and undirected connections as well as to
allow removal of cells while in bufnorm mode.
This doesn't yet update the (experimental) `bufnorm` pass, so to
manually test the new kernel functionality, it is important to only use
`bufnorm -update` and `bufnorm -reset` which rely entirely on the kernel
functionality. Other modes of the `bufnorm` pass may still fail in the
presence of inout ports or undirected connections.
