  Description     : Spike RISC-V ISA Simulator

Spike has been published for several years, with the development of
RISC-V, I think it should be included in Debian packages.
 - Spike is developed by the official RISC-V organization. It is a good
   reference for RISC-V ISA Simulator, and it has 1.8K stars on GitHub.
 - QEMU also supports RISC-V ISA simulation, but it acts more for
   virtual environment. Spike focus on RISC-V, and it is more for
	 developing.
 - I am new to package maintenance, so I need a sponsor. Spike's API is
   fairly stable, the last version was released on Dec 17, 2021. But the
	 development is still ongoing. So the maintenance should be easy for a
	 noob like me.
