d135fbddca Add robustness to comma-detection and reset generation.
This patch addresses issues I occasionally observed:

a) I have seen occurrences when the GTX deasserts RXBYTEISALIGNED
   while the RXLOSSOFSYNC is *not* asserted.

   The comma-alignment state machine can be stuck in 'idle' believing
   all is well when in fact RXBYTEISALIGNED is deasserted.

   The proposed patch monitors RXBYTEISALIGNED in addition to
   RXLOSSOFSYNC in 'idle' state.

b) The synchronizer (inst_cdc_fast_stat) which takes the pulse
   width/delay to the EVR clock domain relies on a proper
   reset sequence for correct operation.

   It is possible, however, that the 'evr_clk' (which is generated
   from the recovered RX clock) is not ticking at all when 'xuser_RESET'
   resets said synchronizer. If e.g., there is no GTX reference clock
   present (because it requires i2c initialization which is performed
   later) then the EVR clock may not be ticking and prevent the
   destination side of the synchronizer from being reset. This
   has the consequence of 'width' and 'delay' *never* being
   updated.

   The proposed patch asserts the synchronizer reset while the RX PLL
   and/or MMCM are not locked.
