Add VPTOOL, a verification plan tool.
Created by: zchamski
VPTOOL is a tool for creating and maintaining verification plans.
The VPTOOL tool is placed in the directory that receives other open-source tools
such as Spike and Verilator whenever they are built locally (the corresponding directories are named tools/spike, tools/verilator-4.110 etc.)
File tools/vptool/VPTOOL-readme.py provides an introduction to VPTOOL use
and to the prerequisites that must be installed in order to use VPTOOL.
The directory tools/vptool-example contains an example that runs the tool
on a toy database. Invoke sh tools/vptool/vptool-example/runme.sh to run
the example.
