[ spi_host ] Flag non-allowed write events as errors

The SPI_HOST TXDATA register/memory window is one of the few
registers in opentitan which support byte enables. However
the IP is not meant to deal zero-byte events.

Though such events are not expected, they are also not supported
by the SPI_HOST programming model.

This commit monitors the bus for such events and records an error
if such an event is detected.

Furthermore, events that do NOT correspond to any possible software
access pattern (i.e., not single-byte, two contiguous bytes, or full-word)
are also flagged as errors. The intent here is to simplify coverage as well
as provide further checks against possible bus faults.

About the project

OpenTitan is an open source silicon Root of Trust (RoT) project. OpenTitan will make the silicon RoT design and implementation more transparent, trustworthy, and secure for enterprises, platform providers, and chip manufacturers. OpenTitan is administered by lowRISC CIC as a collaborative project to produce high quality, open IP for instantiation as a full-featured product. See the OpenTitan site and OpenTitan docs for more information about the project.
