Description

Add a CI job that makes sure there are no regressions in JTAG DPI functionality. The debug module is already tested on FPGA using the system bus access to program the tests.

This JTAG DPI test should also run in legacy mode to make sure that there are no regressions with the legacy debug module.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing CI coverage for the debug module and the FPGA tests that use system bus access. Trace the JTAG DPI functionality and its legacy debug-module mode, then add CI coverage for both paths. Done means CI detects regressions in JTAG DPI functionality in current and legacy modes.
