[ARM,AArch64] Do not tail-call to an externally-defined function with weak linkage

Externally-defined functions with weak linkage should not be
tail-called on ARM or AArch64, as the AAELF spec requires normal calls
to undefined weak functions to be replaced with a NOP or jump to the
next instruction. The behaviour of branch instructions in this
situation (as used for tail calls) is implementation-defined, so we
cannot rely on the linker replacing the tail call with a return.
