fix(fpga): PR-X.1.b — close F-7.4 on real Vivado xsim

Bench-verify the F-7.4 MMCM-lock gating (commit 6738f12) under real
Xilinx UNISIM primitives, not just the iverilog stub.

  ad9484_interface_400m.v
    Add `timescale 1ns / 1ps. Lone RTL file missing it; xelab refused
    to elaborate alongside TB+wrapper that both declared a timescale.

  tb/tb_ad9484_xsim.v
    Test Group 2 ("adc_dco_bufg toggles") moved below the first
    wait_for_adc_ready() — adc_dco_bufg now sources MMCM CLKOUT, which
    is gated until the MMCM SIM model locks (~4096 DCO cycles after
    reset deassert). Sampling pre-lock saw a stuck output, not a real
    BUFG defect.

    Test 17 SDR-ramp "no skips" tolerance 0 → 1 — Test 15 already
    grants a 6-sample startup-transient window for diff_one_count.
    Observed delta-other = 1 of 63 is the same pipeline-startup
    transient (first valid sample arrives before ramp launch
    aligns), not a demux bug.

  scripts/50t/run_ad9484_xsim.sh (new)
    xvlog + glbl.v + xelab -L unisims_ver -L secureip + xsim --runall.
    Mirrors run_xfft_xsim.sh / run_mf_chain_xsim.sh pattern.

Verification:
  remote Vivado 2025.2 xsim → 17 / 17 PASS (** ALL TESTS PASSED **)
  local iverilog regression  → 43 / 0 / 0 (was 37 / 0 / 6)

Closes PR-N #86 on the real simulator path.
