The nOS-V events are modified in two ways: 1) to create a parallel task
the new VTC event must be used and 2) all task events for both normal
(VTc) and parallel (VTC) tasks require an extra argument in the payload
to indicate the body id. As a consequence, the nOS-V model version is
now increased to 2.0.0.
Additionally, all the channel PRV flags are set to PRV_SKIPDUPNULL, so
duplicates are only emitted if they are not null. It solves the problem
when a task switches to another task with the same body id.
A new Paraver configuration is added for the body id.
Instead of showing the "attached" state with the VH{aA} events, we show
when the call to nosv_attach() and nosv_detach() take place. The old
VH{aA} events are now ignored. Bumps the nOS-V model version to 1.1.0.
The experimental flag -a is used to ease the transition to the usage of
ovni_thread_require(), as it may be posible to have traces in which not
all libraries have requested their model. The flag causes all emulation
models to be enabled. This flag is considered experimental and it may be
removed or renamed in future versions.
Allows programs to update to a new libovni library without breaking the
instrumentation. Only until the first call to ovni_thread_require() the
models are enabled on demand.
Until now, emulation models were always being registered via probe(),
which causes the emulator to initialize all the channels. To reduce the
overhead, the channels were not connected or registered in the bay
until the first event of that model was received. This delayed connect
was causing issues in muxes where the newly connected model required
refreshing the touched channels. Which in turn was causing unexpected
PRV events.
By determining which models we need to enable, we can remove the delayed
connect mechanism and just enable those models at initialization time,
and connect the channels.
When running without all the subsystem events enabled in nOS-V, it is
possible to emit two consecutive VTx events, which would push twice the
same value ST_TASK_BODY into the subsystem channel. This change relaxes
the subsystem channel to accept duplicate stacked values. A regression
test is also added.

In nOS-V, when a task was paused via the VTp event, two things were
happening: 1) the task state was set to pause and 2) the subsystem state
"Task: Running" was being popped.
This causes a problem when a task calls nosv_submit() in blocking mode,
as it will call nosv_pause() which will emit a VTp event from a
subsystem different than "Task: Running".
To solve this conflict, we handle the subsystems state and the task
state separately with the VTp and VTr events. The subsystem state "Task:
Running" no longer is connected to the state of the task and only shows
if we entered the body of the task or not. It has now been renamed to
"Task: In body".
The new state "Task: In body" represents that the task body has begun
the execution and is still in the stack, but the task may be paused. The
subsystem is not changed by the VTp (pause) or VTr (resume) events.

Generates a script with the values of the delta clock, PRV type and
value to be matched in the .prv traces, to ensure the emulator emitted
the switching type event.
