After examining the files in depth, I realized I need some help
understanding core concepts in FPGA programming:

In "axi_fir_filter.v" there is a parameter named
"USE_EMBEDDED_REGS_COEFFS", and explained in comment: " Reduce register
usage by only using embedded registers in DSP slices".

- What is the actual difference between registers and embedded registers?
- Does the implementation of the two only differ in usage of "wire" vs.
"reg"?

Thanks for your time,
Steve
