Experimental macro for naming Chisel hardware values
By default, Chisel uses reflection for naming which only works for public fields of Bundle
and Module classes. Applying this macro annotation to a class or object enables Chisel
to name any hardware values within the annotated class or object.

Example:
import chisel3._
import chisel3.experimental.chiselName
@chiselName
class MyModule extends Module {
val io = IO(new Bundle {
val in = Input(UInt(8.W))
val out = Output(UInt(8.W))
})
def createReg(): Unit = {
// @chiselName allows Chisel to name this Regval myReg = RegInit(io.in)
io.out := myReg
}
createReg()
}
