Aarch64: Add inline assembly pthread wrapper
This patch adds AArch64-specific inline assembly block for the pthread
wrapper used to bootstrap new threads. It sets up the thread stack,
adjusts for __CYGTLS_PADSIZE__, releases the original stack via
VirtualFree, and invokes the target thread function.
