mem: Ensure InvalidateReq is considered isForward by MSHRs

Browse source 
This patch fixes an issue where an MSHR would incorrectly be perceived
to provide data to targets arriving after an InvalidateReq. To address
this the InvalidateReq is now treated as isForward, much like an
UpgradeReq that did not hit in the cache.
