Description
The rstmgr_leaf_rst_cnsty and rstmgr_leaf_rst_shadow_attack countermeasure tests rely on the LIST_OF_LEAFS and LIST_OF_SHADOW_LEAFS lists of instances of rstmgr_leaf_chk instances in rstmgr, declared in rstmgr_env_pkg.sv.
If the names of these instances changes these tests will start failing, but if a new instance is added there will be no test failures but the countermeasures for the missing instances won't be tested.
We could auto-generate these lists, or create some other check to detect out-of-date lists.

Research direction
Start with rstmgr_env_pkg.sv and the rstmgr_leaf_rst_cnsty and rstmgr_leaf_rst_shadow_attack countermeasure tests, focusing on LIST_OF_LEAFS and LIST_OF_SHADOW_LEAFS. Determine how the instance lists can stay synchronized or detect missing instances; done means renamed or newly added rstmgr_leaf_chk instances cannot leave the countermeasure tests out of date.
