The gizflo currently goes all the way to bitstream
and adding programming should be straightforward.

In my opinion, programming is board specific, this
would be tied to the board definitions but using
common components in the package to abstract:

     Xilinx programmer
     Quartus, quartus_pgm
     various USB programming methods

The gizflo package already supports ISE, the
start of Vivado, and Quartus.  It shouldn't be
too difficult to add Lattice Diamond, actually
I think someone already started this when the
flow was part of myhdl_tools.
