It looks like there are a few references to ibex still around that should probably change (especially the ones in doc comments and the one in tools) |

Currently EarlGrey is the first and only OpenTitan SoC design, with Ibex CPU at the heart. Ibex being a CPU does not have any knowledge of EarlGrey peripherals, and hence was misrepresented in Tock. This has caused some confusion to how exactly is was intended to be used, and did not achieve the goals of being stand alone crate, as it was coupled to heavily with the OpenTitan board.

I have changed most references of ibex to earlgrey, I think the ones that are left - are justified. |

1997: chip: rename Ibex to EarlGrey r=ppannuto a=silvestrst Currently EarlGrey is the first and only OpenTitan SoC design, with Ibex CPU at the heart. Ibex being a CPU does not have any knowledge of EarlGrey peripherals, and hence was misrepresented in Tock. This has caused some confusion to how exactly it was intended to be used, and did not achieve the goals of being stand alone crate, as it was coupled to heavily with the OpenTitan board. ### Pull Request Overview This pull request renames Ibex crate to EarlGrey, because de facto - that's what it is. This change also makes tock#1741 more reasonable. ### Testing Strategy - [x] Should be tested on FPGA or verilator before merging. ### Documentation Updated - [x] Updated the relevant files in `/docs`, or no updates are required. ### Formatting - [x] Ran `make prepush`.
