/*
 * The clusterer uses several key data structures:
 *
 *      t_pb_type (and related types):
 *          Represent the architecture as described in the architecture file.
 *
 *      t_pb_graph_node (and related types):
 *          Represents a flattened version of the architecture with t_pb_types
 *          expanded (according to num_pb) into unique t_pb_graph_node instances,
 *          and the routing connectivity converted to a graph of t_pb_graph_pin (nodes)
 *          and t_pb_graph_edge.
 *
 *      t_pb:
 *          Represents a clustered instance of a t_pb_graph_node containing netlist primitives
 *
 *  t_pb_type and t_pb_graph_node (and related types) describe the targetted FPGA architecture, while t_pb represents
 *  the actual clustering of the user netlist.
 *
 *  For example:
 *      Consider an architecture where CLBs contain 4 BLEs, and each BLE is a LUT + FF pair.
 *      We wish to map a netlist of 400 LUTs and 400 FFs.
 *
 *      A BLE corresponds to one t_pb_type (which has num_pb = 4).
 *
 *      Each of the 4 BLE positions corresponds to a t_pb_graph_node (each of which references the BLE t_pb_type).
 *
 *      The output of clustering is 400 t_pb of type BLE which represent the clustered user netlist.
 *      Each of the 400 t_pb will reference one of the 4 BLE-type t_pb_graph_nodes.
