According to the RISC-V Privileged Architecture specification, the low
bit of MEPC/SEPC must always be zero. When IALIGN=32, the two low bits
must be zero.

This commit fixes the behavior of MEPC/SEPC CSR reads and writes, and
the implicit reads by MRET/SRET instructions to properly mask the
lowest bit(s) based on whether the C extension is enabled:
- When C extension is enabled (IALIGN=16): mask bit 0
- When C extension is disabled (IALIGN=32): mask bits [1:0]

Previously, when vectored mode bits from STVEC (which sets bit 0 for
vectored mode) were written to MEPC, the bits would not be cleared
correctly, causing incorrect behavior on MRET.
