I'm doing this in two phases for a better "git blame" record. This
commit removes the previous AArch64 backend and redirects all
functionality to ARM64. It also deduplicates test-lines and removes
orphaned AArch64 tests.
The next step will be "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and rewire most of the
tests.
Hopefully LLVM is still functional, though it would be even better if
no-one ever had to care because the rename happens straight
afterwards.

When register allocator's stage is RS_Spill, we choose spill over using the CSR
for the first time, if the spill cost is lower than CSRCost.
When register allocator's stage is < RS_Split, we choose pre-splitting over
using the CSR for the first time, if the cost of splitting is lower than
CSRCost.
CSRCost is set with command-line option "regalloc-csr-first-time-cost". The
default value is 0 to generate the same codes as before this commit.
With a value of 15 (1 << 14 is the entry frequency), I measured performance
gain of 3% on 253.perlbmk and 1.7% on 197.parser, with instrumented PGO,
on an arm device.
