Daniel Bertalan 2b69af2dfe AK+LibJS: Handle NaN-boxing pointers on AArch64 ...

JS::Value stores 48 bit pointers to separately allocated objects in its
payload. On x86-64, canonical addresses have their top 16 bits set to
the same value as bit 47, effectively meaning that the value has to be
sign-extended to get the pointer. AArch64, however, expects the topmost
bits to be all zeros.

This commit gates sign extension behind `#if ARCH(X86_64)`, and adds an
`#error` for unsupported architectures, so that we do not forget to
think about pointer handling when porting to a new architecture.

Fixes #15290
Fixes SerenityOS/ladybird#56
