I did that on my last FPGA design.  Wanted an excuse to play with the
3AN :-)

I used the SPI pins, just streamed the bitstream at full speed.  The
RX board uses jtag, so I have to convert the bitstream to XSVF and
play it into the chip, but I don't have to include that code (or
bitstream) in any normal apps.
