PR45875 notes an instance where exception handling crashes on aarch64-fuchsia where SCS is enabled by default. The underlying issue seems to be that within libunwind, various _Unwind_* functions, the x18 register is not updated if a function is marked with `nounwind`. This removes the check for `nounwind` and emits the CFI instruction that updates x18.
