Documentation:
Specifies how actual port names are obtained from formal port names.
In a component instantiation, an actual port name can be obtained by
modifying the formal port name (e.g. attaching or stripping off a substring).

FROM REGEXP is a regular expression matching the original name:
".*" matches the entire string
"\(...\)" matches a substring
TO STRING specifies the string to be inserted as new name:
"\&" means substitute entire matched text
"\N" means substitute what matched the Nth "\(...\)"
Examples:
".*" "\&" inserts original string
".*" "\&_i" attaches "_i" to original string
"\(.*\)_[io]$" "\1" strips off "_i" or "_o" from original string
".*" "foo" inserts constant string "foo"
".*" "" inserts empty string
