Launch tracking

[kytrinyx]

Edit this issue to keep track of the tasks you're working on towards launch.

We have a rough guide for how to launch a track, which is sorely outdated but
quite possibly better than nothing (I'm so sorry, I'm waaaay behind on getting
documentation updated).
https://github.com/exercism/docs/blob/master/language-tracks/launch/README.md

Check out https://github.com/orgs/exercism/teams/track-maintainers/discussions/1
for details about the #maintainers channel in the exercism-team Slack workspace.

Please ask if you have any questions or if anything is confusing!

@Des333 @m1a1x1 - have you started implementing this track?

Since Exercism users do not usually have all day to install the tools, the first step is to choose test environment that is easiest to install and supports as many SV constructs as possible. Modelsim bundled with vendor (Intel/Xilinx) software? Icarus? Or should multiple simulators be supported?

How about licensing? Solving exercise problems qualifies as non-commercial usage, but are there any license restrictions?

Is the goal of the exercises to write any working code or synthesizable code?

I can help with porting the exercises and documentation, but someone needs to drive the whole effort and make initial decisions.
