[AARCH64][RegisterCoalescer] clang miscompiles zero-extension to long long

Implement AArch64 variant of shouldCoalesce() to detect a known failing case
and prevent the coalescing of a 32-bit copy into a 64-bit sign-extending load.

Do not coalesce in the following case:
COPY where source is bottom 32 bits of a 64-register,
and destination is a 32-bit subregister of a 64-bit register,
ie it causes the rest of the register to be implicitly set to zero.

A mir test has been added.

In the test case, the 32-bit copy implements a 32 to 64 bit zero extension
and relies on the upper 32 bits being zeroed.

Coalescing to the result of the 64-bit load meant overwriting
the upper 32 bits incorrectly when the loaded byte was negative.
