[compiler-rt] [compiler-rt][AArch64] Don't use x18 in __arm_sme_save (PR #157802)

[Sander de Smalen via llvm-commits]

https://github.com/sdesmalen-arm created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/157802

The AAPCS recommends avoiding the use of x18 as it may be used for other purposes such as a shadow call stack.

In this particular case it could just as well use x16 instead.
