Subject: [PATCH v2] arm64: jump_label: use constraints "Si" instead of "i"

The generic constraint "i" seems to be copied from x86 or arm (and with
a redundant generic operand modifier "c"). It works with -fno-PIE but
not with -fPIE/-fPIC in GCC's aarch64 port.

The machine constraint "S", which denotes a symbol or label reference
with a constant offset, supports PIC and has been available in GCC since
2012 and in Clang since 7.0. However, Clang before 19 does not support
"S" on a symbol with a constant offset [1] (e.g.
`static_key_false(&nf_hooks_needed[pf][hook])` in
include/linux/netfilter.h), so we use "i" as a fallback.

arm64: jump_label: use constraint "S" instead of "i" (https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240131065322.1126831-1-maskray@google.com/)

* Use "Si" as Ard suggested to support Clang<19
* Make branch a separate operand

Changes from v1:

* Use asmSymbolicName for readability
