Fix an incorrect assumption in ChiselSim that a 'filelist.f' will exist that includes all modules, _including blackboxes_, in the design. Change this to try to also copy files from the black box filelist. This makes ChiselSim work with CIRCT 1.66 and earlier (which put everything in 'filelist.f') and CIRCT 1.66+ (which does not include blackboxes in 'filelist.f'). Note that this is intended as a temporary solution until FIRRTL has a rock solid ABI that is implemented by CIRCT where all modules can be discovered under an arbitrary public module.

This fixes the nightly failure seen here: https://github.com/chipsalliance/chisel/actions/runs/8110395678
Release Notes
Change ChiselSim to also move blackboxes as indicated by the default black box filelist. This fixes issues with ChiselSim and CIRCT 1.67.0 introduced in (llvm/circt#6729). This is a backwards compatible change that has no effect on earlier versions of CIRCT.
