[AArch64] Redundant store instructions should be removed as dead code

If there is a store followed by a store with the same value to the same location, then the store is dead/noop. It can be removed.

This problem is found in spec2006-197.parser.

For example,
  stur    w10, [x11, #-4]
  stur    w10, [x11, #-4]
Then one of the two stur instructions can be removed.
