[MCA] Improved handling of negative read-advance cycles.

Before this patch, register writes were always invalidated by the
RegisterFile at instruction commit stage. So,
the RegisterFile was often losing the knowledge about the `execute
cycle` of writes already committed. While this was not problematic
for non-delayed reads, this was sometimes leading to inaccurate read
latency computations in the presence of negative read-advance cycles.

This patch fixes the issue by changing how the RegisterFile component
internally keeps track of the `execute cycle` information of each
write. On every instruction executed, the RegisterFile gets notified
by the RetireStage, so that it can internally record the execute
cycle of each executed write.
The `execute cycle` information is stored within WriteRef itself, and
it is not invalidated when the write is committed.
