Synth small problem

First, Vivado doesn't support parameter string, bud it easy to resolve it by deleting "string" words.

Ok, good to know. I've seen it in Intel params so I assumed Vivado would support it too.

Second, there is general problem if use 16bits audio bit width instead of 24bit there is error:

[Synth 8-659] type mismatch in assignment: bit [15:0]A[1:0] vs. bit [23:0]B[1:0] ["C:/temp/DV/DV.srcs/sources_1/new/packet_picker.sv":78]

with 24bits is synthesizable.

Looks like Quartus will allow truncation without a hard fail, but Vivado does not.

I'll push a commit to fix this soon. I should start testing with Vivado simulation in Travis CI, do you know if it's possible to get the simulation tool standalone?

Also, because the type is not string now, you can't use null padding unfortunately:

"Unknown\0"

must become

{"Unknown", 8'd0}

Great. Synth is OK. Thanks a lot.
