Saw your 'proof-of-concept' test case yesterday, was helpful for understanding
the functionality of the module further. Unfortunately, I think this test is
now failing with the following error:

```
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "virtual_port.py", line 203, in <module>
    test_regfile()
  File "virtual_port.py", line 200, in test_regfile
    vcd_name='test_regfile_array.vcd')
  File "/home/colepoirier/src/nmigen/nmigen/compat/sim/__init__.py", line 22,
in run_simulation
    fragment.domains += ClockDomain("sync")
AttributeError: 'VirtualRegPort' object has no attribute 'domains'
```

I suspect it's a simple fix, but the answer is not immediately apparent to me.

Indeed, it seems to be a very productive strategy. Looking forward to working
with you on the proof today. Just reviewing my notes now, should have some code
for some of the basic assumptions committed in the next hour.
