target aarch64: rework memory read/write to use 8/16/32 bit operations

The existing code only used Memory Access mode to read memory,
which uses 32 bit operations only.
Rework the code to check the alignment/size of the read/write operation,
and use the Memory Access mode to read aligned 32 bit memory.
When using unaligned access, or 8 or 16 bit reads, use LDR{BHW} and STR{BHW}
instead.

The exception handling is still the same as it was before (meaning it breaks
when things go wrong), but I can now read an 8 bit register correctly.
