[PATCH v2 2/9] aarch64: Align SFrame terminology in comments to specs and x86

Use the term "frame pointer" (FP) instead of "base pointer". This aligns
with the terminology used in the SFrame specification. Additionally it
helps not to confuse "base-pointer register" with the term "BASE_REG"
used in the specification to denote either the SP or FP register.
While at it align the frame-pointer and return address register comments
to the x86 AMD64 ones.

Notes (jremus):
This patch can be dropped, if subsequent patch "sframe: Enhance comments
for SFRAME_CFA_*_REG macros" gets accepted.
