Pn4 user I/O connector

The Pn4 connector is wired to the Virtex-4 device A. The 32 lower bits are available only if an
XC4VFX60 device is mounted on board. The 32 higher bits are available only if PCI 32-bit is
used and only if specified at the time of order.

All signals are user-defined 3.3V LVTLL./LVCMOS.
