a new class in soc/experiment/l0_cache.py is needed which
implements that core algorithm: the one that uses a PriorityPicker to
select one of the "active" LD/STs, then use that to OR-select an
output.

please assume the following inputs:

* an array of 8 Signals of length 8 bits which tell you which
addresses have matched against which other addresses.
  ( we call this the "address-match" array)
* an array of 8 Records containing {16 bytes data, 16 "enable" lines}

and the following output:

* a Record containing {16 bytes data, 16 "enable" lines}

in the address-match array, you want to find the first non-zero line.
once you have that index, use it to OR the 16 bytes and 16 "enables"
from the 8 records, into the output.
