[rtl] Fix FI vulnerability in RF

As described in #20715, a single fault-induced bit-flip inside the
register file could change which of the register file value is
provided to Ibex.

This PR fixes this issue by (i) encoding raddr_a/b to one-hot
encoded signals, (ii) checking these signals for faults, and
(iii) using an one-hot encoded MUX to select which register file
value is forwarded to rdata_a/b.

Area increases by ~1% (Yosys + Nangate45 synthesis).

I conducted a formal fault injection verification at the Yosys
netlist to ensure that the issue really is fixed.
