AMBA ACE monitor and protocol checker

Maturity plannedTargets FPGA + ASICDifficulty HardPriority 3

ACE and ACE-Lite monitor tracking cache line states per master and checking snoop channel handshakes, snoop responses, barrier and DVM transactions and coherence invariants.

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.
