bug#70474: [PATCH 2/2] Replace aarch64 CAS and atomic-swap generated JIT code with CASAL and SWPAL instructions

[Tony Garnock-Jones <tonyg@leastfixedpoint.com>]

This appears to make the problem go away. I'm new at working with 
`lightening` so I'm not confident I've covered everything that needs 
covering, particularly wrt the implementation of cas_atomic. But perhaps 
this can be a foundation for someone who knows more than I do to work from.
