[PATCH 5/6] arm64: insn: operate on MSR/MRS sysreg field via defines

Replace the few instances of hard-coded system register offset and masks
used to operate on MSR/MRS instructions with defines.
This will allow re-use in future commits while making the connection
between those values more explicit.
While we are here, mark `aarch64_insn_extract_system_reg()` `noinstr`
so it can be safe to use in alternative pacthing callbacks.
Changing the mask used in `aarch64_insn_gen_mrs()` to exclude
the lower bits does not change behaviour,
as `aarch64_insn_encode_register()` already clears the bits
used to encode the target register.
