[PATCH 5/5] aarch64: Replace FLD_* macros in do_misc_{en|de}coding

This patch replaces the FLD_* macros with explicit AARCH64_FIELD calls in the do_misc_encoding function within the aarch64 assembler. It also extends the comments to clarify which aliased instructions are involved. This is part of a series to improve the clarity and maintainability of the aarch64 opcode definitions.
