// This module should be instantiated within flops of CDC synchronization primitives,
// and allows DV to model real CDC delays within simulations, especially useful at the chip level
// or in IPs that communicate across clock domains.
//
// The instrumentation is very simple: when this is enabled the input into the first
// synchronizer flop has a mux where the select is randomly set. One of the mux inputs is the input
// of this module, and the other is the output of the first flop: selecting the latter models the
// effect of the first flop missing the input transition.
//
// Notice the delay should cause the input to be skipped by at most a single cycle. As a perhaps
// unnecessary precaution, the select will only be allowed to be random when the input changes.
