TPU-style matrix unit

Maturity plannedTargets FPGA + ASICDifficulty Very hardPriority 2

Large BF16 matrix unit with weight FIFO, unified activation buffer, accumulator SRAM and fused activation pipeline driven by a coarse-grained instruction stream.

Planned. This block is specified in the catalog with its interfaces and targets. No implementation exists yet; the skeleton command below generates a lint-clean shell with its ports and registers.
