    Try a couple PAuth compilation flags for gdb.arch/aarch64-pauth.exp
    
    The -msign-return-address switch has been dropped from GCC, but some
    older compiler may still support it.  Make sure we try both
    -msign-return-address and -mbranch-protection before bailing out when
    running gdb.arch/aarch64-pauth.exp.
