[AArch64] Use 16 bytes as preferred function alignment on Cortex-A57.

Summary:
This change gives a 0.89% speed on execution time, a 0.94% improvement
in benchmark scores and a 0.62% increase in binary size on a Cortex-A57.
These numbers are the geomean results on a wide range of benchmarks from
the test-suite, SPEC2000, SPEC2006 and a range of proprietary suites.

The software optimization guide for the Cortex-A57 recommends 16 byte
branch alignment.
