Issue:
Sub-Bundle-Valued Connections
Reaching into sub-bundles to make instance connections fails elaboration. 

Minimal unit test: 

```python
def test_sub_bundle_conn():
    """ Test connecting via PortRef to a sub-Bundle """

    @h.bundle
    class B1:
        s = h.Signal()

    @h.module
    class HasB1:

    @h.module
    class HasB2:
        b2 = B2()
        h = HasB1(b1=b2.b1)

    h.elaborate(HasB2)
```

+  * Adds "generate `PortRef`s via getattr" functionality. 
+* `call_and_setattr_connects` - think `Instance`. 
+  * The most elaborate of the bunch.

-Defines the primary `elaborate` method used to flesh out an in-memory `Module` or `Generator`. 
-Internally defines and uses a number of hierarchical visitor-classes which traverse the hardware hierarchy, 
-performing one or more transformation-passes.

-# Hdl21 PDK Interface
-
-Hdl21 "process development kit" (PDK) packages provide the bundle between the Python HDL and fabricatable process technologies. 
-PDK packages typically include: 
-
-* (a) Definitions of technology-specific `ExternalModule`s, commonly including transistors and passive components, and 
-* (b) A transformation method for converting genertic `Primitive` elements to the technology-specific `ExternalModule`s.
-
-The latter manifests as a "compiler pass" over the Hdl21 circuit-proto tree. 
-An `hdl21.proto.Package` is hierarchically traversed, and instances of `hdl21.Primitive`s 
-are transformed, typically to technology-specific `ExternalModule`s. 
-
-The PDK API consists of one required method `compile`: 
-
-```python
-def compile(src: hdl21.proto.Package) -> hdl21.proto.Package
-```
-
-The core method `compile` transforms a process-generic `hdl21.proto.Package` into PDK-specific content. 
-This will commonly manifest as replacement of `hdl21.Primitive` instances with PDK-specific `ExternalModule`s. 
-Mutation of the `src` package is allowed, although not recommended (or often terribly helpful).  
-
-Plug-in-style registration of `hdl21.PDK`s makes them available to `hdl21.Generator`s, 
-and generally allows for a full program-worth of comprehension of the target process.  
-Registering a PDK requires only passing its (Python) module as an argument to the `hdl21.pdk.register` function. 
-Typical PDKs packages then take the typical form: 
-
-```python
-from hdl21.pdk import register
-
-# Grab our primary PDK-definition module
-from . import sample_pdk
-
-# And register as a PDK module
-register(sample_pdk)

+# PDK Installations 
+
+In addition to their in-memory, Hdl21-representable content, 
+process development kits (PDK)s often require large suites of files 
+which represent the underlying technology. 
+
+Transistor models and SPICE "library" files are common examples 
+pertinent to Hdl21. Tech-files, layout libraries, and the like 
+are similarly necessary for related pieces of software. 
+
+Each `hdl21.pdk.PdkInstallation` represents a typical *site installation*, 
+i.e. the combination of that content and its location on a 
+particular file system. 
+
+Tracking such site-specific content through long call-stacks 
+can be pedantic, especially since the information is generally 
+shared throughout a python process. The typical usage to avoid this is to, 
+in a "site-specific" module or package, 
+
+* Import the target PDK module 
+* Create an instance of its `PdkInstallation` subtype
+* Affix that instance to the PDK module's `install` member 
+
+E.g. 
+```python
+# "mysite.py", or similar
+
+import mypdk 
+
+mypdk.install = mypdk.Install(
+    models = "/path/to/models",
+    path2 = "/path/2",
+    # etc.
+)
+```
+
+Any programs needing the site-specific data can then import `mysite`, 
+while code directly requiring the contents of the `PdkInstall` need 
+not be directly aware of its contents. 
+For example when invoking a simulation requiring `mypdk`'s models:
+
+```python 
+# Simulation Invocation 
+# Presumes `mysite` or similar has set `mypdk.install` beforehand. 
+
+import mypdk
+sim = Sim(tb=tb)
+sim.lib(mypdk.install.models, "ss")
+sim.run()
+```
+
+"""
+
+from pydantic.dataclasses import dataclass
+
+
+@dataclass
+class PdkInstallation:
+    """ 
+    # PDK Installation 
+
+    A named set of PDK-related data, typically including details of 
+    a particular "site installation" of external files and settings. 
+    
+    While often comprised of file-system `Path`s, the content of a `PdkInstallation` 
+    can in principle be anything related to the installation, 
+    e.g. compilation settings for a particular tool, or metadata indicating
+    relevant tool versions. 
+
+    Most PDK modules should generally create a `pydantic.dataclass` which is also 
+    a sub-class of `PdkInstallation`, e.g. 
+
+    ```python
+    # mypdk.py 
+
+    from pathlib import Path
+    from pydantic.dataclasses import dataclass 
+    from hdl21.pdk import PdkInstallation 
+
+    @dataclass 
+    class Install(PdkInstallation):
+        model_file: Path
+        options: Dict[str, str]
+    ```
+    
+    ```python
+    # site.py
+    import mypdk
+
+    mypdk.install = mypdk.Install(
+        model_file = "/my/pdk/models", 
+        options = {"opt" : "max"}
+    )
+    ```
+
+    ```python 
+    # Application-Level Code
+    # Running an example simulation with `mypdk`
+
+    import site   # Creates the site-specific `PdkInstallation`s
+    import mypdk  # Import the target PDK 
+
+    sim = Sim(tb=tb)
+    sim.lib(mypdk.install.models, "ss")
+    sim.run()
+    ```
+
+    This "installation data" can in principle be store anywhere, or in unstructured types. 
+    The primary goal of the `PdkInstallation` type is to centralize this data, 
+    and to enable shorthand registration and recall, particularly for 
+    the common case of a single in-memory `PdkInstallation`.

+# Note on Numeric Types 
+
+`Prefixed` supports a sole type for its `number` field: the standard library's `Decimal`. 
+One might wonder why it does not include `int` and `float` as well, or perhaps 
+some other numeric-like types. 
+
+This boils down to limitations in validation. Previous versions of `Prefixed` have 
+used a `Number` union-type along these lines:
+```
+Number = Union[Decimal, float, int]
+```
+This is nominally handy, but results in many values being converted among these types, 
+often where one may not expect. 
+The pydantic docs are clear about their limitations in this respect: 
+https://pydantic-docs.helpmanual.io/usage/types/#unions
+
+These limitations include the fact that despite being declared in list-like 
+"ordered" syntax, union-types do not have orders in the Python standard library. 
+So even interpreting `Union[Decimal, float, int]` as "prefer Decimal, use float 
+and then int if that (for whatever reason) doesn't work" fails, 
+since the `Union` syntax can be reordered arbitrarily by the language. 
+
+The other clear alternative is not doing runtime type-validation of `Prefixed`, 
+or of classes which instantiate them. Prior versions also tried this, 
+to fairly confounding results. Incorporating standard-library `dataclasses` 
+as members of larger `pydantic.dataclasses` seems to *work* - i.e. it does not 
+produce `ValidationError`s or similar - but ultimately with enough of them, 
+triggers some highly inscrutable errors in the standard-library methods. 
+
+So: all `Decimal`, all `pydantic.dataclasses`.
