check_equal support for fixed_pkg resolve #909

[abaebae]

How do you want to handle the string representation of fixed_pkg types? I used the to_string function from the fixed_pkg. Do you prefer the to_nibble_string style or a merge of both styles?

I'm not an expert in VUnits code, but this looks quite good. About the string representation, I think since fixed_pkg already has one and it's part of the VHDL standard, it should be used.

After updating license copyright years and running black, the remaining CI errors are related to the code in this PR. Check the following format mismatch:

Got:

   logger = check

   log_level = pass

   msg = Equality check passed - Got 1010.0101 (1.03125e1).

   file_name:line_num = :0



expected:

   logger = check

   log_level = pass

   msg = Equality check passed - Got 1010.0101 (10.3125).

   file_name:line_num = :0

It seems that every simulator had a slightly different default format for the to_string(real) implementation. The format is now explicitly set to the format string "%f". That should lead to a consistent output style. The format style is up for debate.
