I'm not sure there's a better way to deal with this, short of just forcing the strips in any aarch64 code, which is not an option.  Maybe emitting strips when +pa is available?  I imagine that's not at all reliable either.

In what sense is it unsafe? The clear instructions do not require a valid PAC
to be present, so even if a caller is not using PAC-RET we still get the return
address.

I'll make a note to prepare a follow-up patch to use `hasPA` across the board.
There are a few more pending patches that likely use hasV8_3aOps,  I want to fix them in a single patch.

Kept -O0 so scheduling does not introduced uninteresting changes in the output.
