Add comprehensive 14-week LLM4ChipDesign course syllabus

[Copilot]

Created a comprehensive course syllabus for the LLM4ChipDesign repository that structures all available modules into a 14-week academic curriculum. The syllabus follows the requested format where each module is taught over 2 weeks:

• Week 1 of each module: Introduction to fundamental concepts and homework assignment
• Week 2 of each module: Homework solutions and hands-on practice sessions

📚 Course Structure

The syllabus organizes 7 carefully selected modules across 14 weeks:

1. AutoChip (Weeks 1-2) - Automated Verilog Generation fundamentals
2. VeriThoughts (Weeks 3-4) - Reasoning-based hardware description
3. ROME (Weeks 5-6) - Hierarchical prompting for complex designs
4. LLM-aided Testbench Generation (Weeks 7-8) - Verification and testing
5. Hybrid-NL2SVA (Weeks 9-10) - Natural language to SystemVerilog assertions
6. C2HLSC (Weeks 11-12) - Software to hardware design bridge
7. PrefixLLM (Weeks 13-14) - Specialized circuit design optimization

📋 Features

• Detailed learning objectives for each week
• Specific homework assignments tied to practical applications
• Assessment methodology with continuous evaluation (70%) and final project (30%)
• Prerequisites and required tools clearly outlined
• Direct links to all relevant papers, tutorials, and Jupyter notebooks
• Professional formatting with both Markdown and HTML versions

📁 Files Added

• LLM4ChipDesign_Course_Syllabus.md - Complete syllabus in Markdown format
• LLM4ChipDesign_Course_Syllabus.html - Styled HTML version with responsive design
• Updated README.md to prominently feature the new syllabus

The syllabus provides educators with a ready-to-use curriculum that systematically covers all aspects of using Large Language Models in chip design, from basic Verilog generation to advanced optimization techniques.
