Adds 4:2 compressors option to ColumnCompressor as well as a better delay table for optimizing the compression tree.
Added a popCount as a LogicValue extension which may need to be migrated to ROHD itself (along with majority). Eventually we will need hardware versions of these.

Testing
Modified tests to enable the 4:2 compression option.
Backwards-compatibility
Is this a breaking change that will not be backwards-compatible? If yes, how so?
compression trees will take on a different shape with different delay tables as the delay optimization gets more realistic.
Documentation
Does the change require any updates to documentation? If so, where? Are they included?
Yes. Code is updated. We could update the component generation to expose this option as well as we need to update the documentation of multipliers that use this option.
