I added a copyright line for you in "fpga.scm" and applied your patch
with the changes detailed below.

This is an unstable release, so I used git-fetch instead, with the tag
corresponding to the release.

I re-ordered native-inputs alphabetically, and moved perl and systemc to
regular inputs instead. I'm not absolutely sure about this change, but
it still compiles. Let me know if this is not appropriate.

I tweaked the synopsis so it doesn't start with the "A" article. Running
"guix lint" should warn you about it.

I slightly reworded the beginning of the description according to
information from the GitHub repository.
Thank you.
