// Hierarchical design with a feedthrough buffer in child_mod.
// child_mod has data_i -> BUF_X1 -> data_o (feedthrough via buffer).
//
// In top, the child's data_i is driven by an internal wire (not a port),
// while data_o connects to an output port.  This means when
// remove_buffers removes the feedthrough buffer:
//   - input side net has NO port  (internal wire)
//   - output side net HAS a port  (data_o)
// So the output net becomes the survivor, and the merged ModNet
// takes the output port name — triggering the bug.
