  Log Message:
  -----------
  [AArch64] PAUTH_PROLOGUE should not be duplicated with PAuthLR (#124775)

When using PAuthLR, the PAUTH_PROLOGUE expands into a sequence of
instructions which takes the address of one of those instructions, and
uses that address to compute the return address signature. If this is
duplicated, there will be two different addresses used in calculating
the signature, so the epilogue will only be correct for (at most) one of
them.

This change also restricts code generation when using v8.3-A return
address signing, without PAuthLR. This isn't strictly needed, as
duplicating the prologue there would be valid. We could fix this by
having two copies of PAUTH_PROLOGUE, with and without isNotDuplicable,
but I don't think it's worth adding the extra complexity to a security
feature for that.
