filetypes.verilog only includes ancient Verilog-1995 keywords (plus signed and unsigned for some reason), but is missing plenty of the newer Verilog-2001 and the newest Verilog-2005 keywords, some of them very common, such as generate/endgenerate, localparam, automatic...

I have added all those "new" keywords to the word3= category to distinguish them from the "classic" keywords from the previous century, although I honestly don't know what's the difference between the two categories.

I have also moved all the keywords that used to be in word3= to word=, since I didn't see any reason to keep those keywords there (they seem to be related to "variable declarations" one way or another, but then again, so are many of the keywords listed in word=). This way, word= will be for the "old" keywords, and word3= for the "new" ones that "might not work in a Verilog tool made in the previous century".

Finally, I have added $ to the list of wordchars=, because Verilog is special and considers $ to be an identifier character like _ (so e.g. $finish and gotabout$350 are valid identifiers).
