We previously bumped the defaults for 26.0 Apple OS targets to conservative CPU targets in 69d141712a10.
We can further bump it for watchOS arm64 (which lets us be a little bit more aggressive than arm64e/arm64_32), as well as for the iOS predecessor, iOS 18.

Subject: [PATCH] [AArch64] Bump default CPUs for iOS 18/watchOS 26 to A10/S9.
We previously bumped the defaults to conservative CPU targets,
for 26.0 Apple OS targets, in 69d141712a10.
We can further bump it for the iOS predecessor, iOS 18, as well
as for watchOS arm64, which lets us be a little bit more aggressive
than arm64e/arm64_32.
