arm64: scs: Store absolute SCS stack pointer value in thread_info
Storing the SCS information in thread_info as a {base,offset} pair introduces an additional load instruction on the ret-to-user path, since the SCS stack pointer in x18 has to be converted back to an offset by subtracting the base. Replace the offset with the absolute SCS stack pointer value instead and avoid the redundant load.
