mem: Align how snoops are handled when hitting writebacks
This patch unifies the snoop handling in case of hitting writebacks
with how we handle snoops hitting in the tags. As a result, we end up
using the same optimisation as the normal snoops, where we inform the
downstream cache if we encounter a line in Modified (writable and
dirty) state, which enables us to avoid sending out express snoops to
invalidate any Shared copies of the line. A few regressions
consequently change, as some transactions are sunk higher up in the
cache hierarchy.
