I am more than fine to document xlnx,trig?-assert, as they are necessary
for implementing capture support in the future. The xlnx,gen?-assert
should really be documented as well, as it provides a good sanity check
for PWM support. However, Micheal has in the past voiced his opinion
that these properties should not be included (despite specifying
information which cannot be determined by probing the hardware...).

xlnx,family can probably be removed, as I don't believe this device has
any differences across FPGA families.
