[tlul,rtl] Explicitly zero some integrity bits from tlul_adapter_reg

The existing behaviour of the tlul_rsp_intg_gen was to add rsp/data
integrity bits if their generation was enabled and pass through the
input integrity bits if not.

In some instantiations (in tlul_adapter_reg and tlul_adapter_dmi),
these bits are actually always zero. One consequence is missing
coverage in DV simulations. The problem is that e.g. the rsp_intg
signal is driven with a continuous assignment:

    assign rsp_intg = tl_i.d_user.rsp_intg;

But the right hand side is zero, so constant and the assignment is not
marked as covered.

This commit adds a UserInIsZero parameter. If this is true then we
know the input d_user signal is zero and thus can wire the variable
directly to zero.

This removes the cover point but will not change RTL behaviour at all.
