[RTL LSU] Change unaligned error behaviour

- If an error is signalled in the first part of an unaligned
  transaction, the second part is issued anyway (to avoid a
  timing loop from data_err_i -> data_req_o)
- Previously, the error was signalled and an exception was taken
  as soon as the first transaction completed. This commits makes
  the core wait until both transactions have completed.
- This prevents strange behaviour caused by the lsu and controller
  being out of sync (fixes #374).
