[PATCH 07/23] aarch64: Remove unnecessary temporary variables

This patch removes unnecessary temporary variables in the AArch64 disassembler (opcodes/aarch64-dis.c). Instead of assigning a value to a temporary variable and then assigning the temporary variable to a field, the code now directly assigns the value to the field. This simplifies the code and makes it easier to read.
