Integrated valid bits into cache block ram. Reset now iteratively clears the entire cache. Allows for much lower FPGA usage and better timings. Should be able to greatly increase cache size as there is an abundance of BRAM.

L2 cache at 100MHz now greatly increases performance. Attempted to create l1i and l1d cache, but becomes unstable and the issue is difficult to similate/replicate. Therefore, all l1 cache is now bypassed and the code can be found in l1cacheUnstable.v. As no l1 cache anymore, I removed some ccache statements to increase performance as this instruction currently does nothing.

Improved reset for cache. Disabled l2 cache as it currently reduces performance. Added more CCache instructions to code, although likely not needed. Still instability issues when L1I cache is enabled.

Added L2 cache (no L1 for now) between CPU and SDRAM controller. No noticable performance difference, can likely be optimized further to reduce cache hit latency.

New SDRAM controller that uses both SDRAM chips. Now separate bus from MU for better performance, as controller runs at 100MHz. Also updated some debug code as debugging was needed. Tested working in hardware. 2x performance boost in some cases.
