 * Timing-optimised detailed placement algorithm using BFS of the neighbour graph created from cells

 *
 * Based on "An Effective Timing-Driven Detailed Placement Algorithm for FPGAs"
 * https://www.cerc.utexas.edu/utda/publications/C205.pdf
 *
 * Modifications made to deal with the smaller Bels that nextpnr uses instead of swapping whole tiles,
 * and deal with the fact that not every cell on the crit path may be swappable.
