Synchronization Register Chain Length logic option

Allows you to specify the retiming behavior for a sequence of synchronization or metastability registers. All registers in the sequence have the same clock and have no fan-out in between, such that the first register is fed by a pin or by logic in another clock domain. These registers are not moved during gate-level retiming. The length of the sequence is specified by a variable.
