Get s2_nack off the critical path
...
We were using it to compute the next PC on flush vs. replay (which require
PC+4 and PC, respectively). This fix gets rid of the adder altogether by
reusing the M-stage PC in the flush case, which by construction holds PC+4.

Separate I$ parity error from miss signal

Handle parity errors with a pipeline flush rather than a faster
frontend replay, reducing a critical path.

Shave a few gate delays off IBuf control logic
...
It takes a while for the pipeline to compute the stall signal, so avoid
using it until the last logic levels in the clock cycle.
