[dev.ssa] cmd/internal/obj/arm64: fix encoding constant into some instructions

When a constant can be encoded in a logical instruction (BITCON), do
it this way instead of using the constant pool. The BITCON testing
code runs faster than table lookup (using map):

(on AMD64 machine, with pseudo random input)
BenchmarkIsBitcon-4   	300000000	         4.04 ns/op
BenchmarkTable-4      	50000000	        27.3 ns/op

The equivalent C code of BITCON testing is formally verified with
model checker CBMC against linear search of the lookup table.

Also handle cases when a constant can be encoded in a MOV instruction.
In this case, materializa the constant into REGTMP without using the
constant pool.

When constants need to be added to the constant pool, make sure to
check whether it fits in 32-bit. If not, store 64-bit.

Both legacy and SSA compiler backends are happy with this.

Fixes #16226.
