Unset gdbarch significant_addr_bit by default
This patch fixes a bug introduced by fix to AArch64 pointer tagging.
In our fix for tagged pointer support our agreed approach was to sign
extend user-space address after clearing tag bits. This is not same
for all architectures and this patch allows sign extension for
addresses on targets which specifically set significant_addr_bit.
More information about patch that caused the issues and discussion
around tagged pointer support can be found in links below:
