// This file implements the TechMapper pass, which performs technology mapping
// by converting logic network representations (AIG operations) into
// technology-specific gate implementations using cut-based rewriting.
//
// The pass uses a cut-based algorithm with priority cuts and NPN canonical
// forms for efficient pattern matching. It processes HWModuleOp instances with
// "hw.techlib.info" attributes as technology library patterns and maps
// non-library modules to optimal gate implementations based on area and timing
// optimization strategies.
