Based on flagship k6_frac_N10_mem32K_40nm.xml architecture. This architecture has no fracturable LUTs

Important Notes:
18+
19+
- This architecture is designed to test
20+
- the splitted I/O blocks (input and output blocks are individual blocks rather than an unified blocks)
21+
- I/Os are located on two sides (top and bottom in this case) of a FPGA
22+
- Fill tiles ('clb' in this case) are mixed with heterogeneous blocks ('DSP' and 'RAM' in this case) in the same columns
23+
24+
- It carries architecture features which may be challenging for physical layouts.
25+
For example, the mixed clb, DSP and RAM in one column is rarely seen in modern FPGA architectures.
26+
Please consider this not as popular architecture choices when doing architecture evaluation.
