+h) multiple libRootDirs for finding hdllib.cfg files
+   Currently hdlib.cfg files are search from one rootDir by find_all_dict_file_paths() in common_dict_file.py. It
+   would be usefule to be able to specify multiple rootDirs for the search path. This allows finding eg. all
+   hdllib.cfg in two different directory trees without having to specifiy their common higher directory root which
+   could be a very large tree to search through. Furthermore by being able to specify the rootDirs more precisely
+   avoids finding unintended hdllib.cfg files.
