Replaces the invented 2-byte header (addr split across both bytes, 2-bit
length field) with the protocol libogc and Swiss actually speak:
command (bit7=0, 6-bit reg) [reg, 00, 00, data] one 4-byte transfer
register (bit7=1, 16-bit reg) [0x80|w<<6, ah, al, 00] + data until CS
This was not an optimisation: the old decoder read Swiss's NWAYS read
(80 00 31 00) as 'write 0x31 to NCRA', and bit 0 of 0x31 is RESET, so every
register read would have reset the device.
Changes:
* 16-bit address; no length field -- register reads and writes now stream
until CS, like the SPRAM path already did
* RHDR_LO starts the SPRAM fetch as soon as the address completes, using
the trailing header byte as the prefetch window the protocol provides
* command space serves EXI regs 0x02/0x03 (interrupt mask/status), the only
two Swiss uses
* EXI_GetID gets its own path: it offers just ONE header byte of warning, so
the first ID byte is pushed the instant byte 0 identifies the query
Two timing subtleties, both found by simulation and commented in place:
* MISO is driven LIVE from the tx FIFO head, so a byte pushed while the pad
byte is on the wire appears in the pad slot. A filler byte is parked
there (MISO is don't-care through the header) so the first real response
lands in data slot 0.
* the prefetch must be one-shot; re-firing while waiting for the pad byte
consumed the register stream early and shifted reads by a byte.
All testbenches updated to the real format and passing: bba_register_file
(7), bba_top (8 incl. the full W5100->SPRAM->GC loop and TX), exi_j4,
exi_capture, spi_mode3_slave, tx_frame_drain, spram_arbiter,
rx_frame_assembler, w5100_parallel_master. gc_bba_test rebuilt against the
new protocol.

Factors the EXI_J4 pad merge out of synth.py so the synthesis path and the
test exercise the same code. Verifies the device ID (04 02 02 00) enumerates
over SP1 with J4 idle, over J4 with SP1 idle, and over SP1 again afterwards,
plus a register read via J4 and the full cs_n truth table.
