Highlights:
* Support for Kasli-SoC, a new EEM carrier based on a Zynq SoC, enabling much faster kernel execution.
* Softcore targets now use the RISC-V architecture (VexRiscv) instead of OR1K (mor1kx).
* WRPLL
* ``get()``, ``get_mu()``, ``get_att()``, and ``get_att_mu()`` functions added for AD9910 and AD9912
* Phaser:
- Improved documentation
- Expose the DAC coarse mixer and sif_sync
- Exposes upconverter calibration and enabling/disabling of upconverter LO & RF outputs.
* Compiler:
- Supports kernel decorator with paths.
- Faster compilation for large arrays/lists.

Breaking changes:
* Updated Phaser-Upconverter default frequency 2.875 GHz. The new default uses the target PFD
frequency of the hardware design.
* `Phaser.init()` now disables all Kasli-oscillators. This avoids full power RF output being
* ``Phaser.init()`` now disables all Kasli-oscillators. This avoids full power RF output being
generated for some configurations.
* Phaser: fixed coarse mixer frequency configuration
