All - some is already done with the SDRAM test, but stressing the
power supply is also pretty important.

One important test is to exercise FPGA internals while monitoring
voltages, another is to exercise IOs both on FPGA and on STM32.

Since lots of data will be sent back and forth between STM32 and FPGA
it would also be useful to stress the memory bus using those two parts.

Since there is no time I guess if there are some problems the
solution will have to be to build delays into strategic places.
