gpu-compute: Fix LDS out-of-bounds behavior

The LDS is capable of handling out-of-bounds accesses,
that is, accesses that are outside the bounds of the
chunk allocated to a WG. Currently, the simulator asserts
on these accesses. This patch changes the behavior of the
LDS to return 0 for reads and dropping writes that are
out-of-bounds.
