dcache: Update TLB PLRU one cycle later

This puts the inputs to the TLB PLRU through a register stage, so
the TLB PLRU update is done in the cycle after the TLB tag
matching rather than the same cycle.  This improves timing.
The PLRU output is only used when writing the TLB in response to
a tlbwe request from the MMU, and that doesn't happen within one
cycle of a virtual-mode load or store, so the fact that the
tlb victim way information is delayed by one cycle doesn't
create any problems.
