Currently, AArch64 only have one target description which is tdesc_aarch64. So,
we haven't implemented any target description detetion mechanism for core file.
This patch is an initial implement of core_read_description method. The "pauth"
feature or any future feature can use this to conditionally return selected
description.

* aarch64-linux-tdep.c (aarch64_linux_core_read_description): New
function.
(aarch64_linux_init_abi): Register gdbarch_core_read_description.
