Muhammad Omair Javaid 78cb4562fa Make offset field optional in RegisterInfo packet for Arm64
This patch carries forward our aim to remove offset field from qRegisterInfo
packets and XML register description. I have created a new function which
returns if offset fields are dynamic meaning client can calculate offset on
its own based on register number sequence and register size. For now this
function only returns true for NativeRegisterContextLinux_arm64 but we can
test this for other architectures and make it standard later.

As a consequence we do not send offset field from lldb-server (arm64 for now)
while other stubs dont have an offset field so it wont effect them for now.
On the client side we have replaced previous offset calculation algorithm
with a new scheme, where we sort all primary registers in increasing
order of remote regnum and then calculate offset incrementally.

This committ also includes a test to verify all of above functionality
on Arm64.
