[AArch64] Remove an overly conservative check when generating store pairs.

Store instructions do not modify register values and therefore it's safe
to form a store pair even if the source register has been read in between
the two store instructions.

Previously, the read of w1 (see below) prevented the formation of a stp.

        str      w0, [x2]
        ldr     w8, [x2, #8]
        add      w0, w8, w1
        str     w1, [x2, #4]
        ret

We now generate the following code.

        stp      w0, w1, [x2]
        ldr     w8, [x2, #8]
        add      w0, w8, w1
        ret

All correctness tests with -Ofast on A57 with Spec200x and EEMBC pass.
Performance results for SPEC2K were within noise.
