aarch64: configure check for pac-ret code generation

Return address signing requires unwinder support, which is
present in libgcc since >=gcc-7, however due to bugs the
support may be broken in <gcc-10 (and similarly there may
be issues in custom unwinders), so pac-ret is not always
safe to use. So in assembly code glibc should only use
pac-ret if the compiler uses it too. Unfortunately there
is no predefined feature macro for it set by the compiler
so pac-ret is inferred from the code generation.
