    aarch64: Avoid duplicating bti j insns for jump tables [PR99988]

    This patch fixes PR99988 which shows us generating large (> 250)
    sequences of back-to-back bti j instructions.

    The fix is simply to avoid inserting bti j instructions at the target of
    a jump table if we've already inserted one for a given label.
