nfp: bpf: optimize the RMW for stack accesses

When we are performing unaligned stack accesses in the 32-64B window
we have to do a read-modify-write cycle.  E.g. for reading 8 bytes
from address 17:

0:  tmp    = stack[16]
1:  gprLo  = tmp >> 8
2:  tmp    = stack[20]
3:  gprLo |= tmp << 24
4:  tmp    = stack[20]
5:  gprHi  = tmp >> 8
6:  tmp    = stack[24]
7:  gprHi |= tmp << 24

The load on line 4 is unnecessary, because tmp already contains data
from stack[20].

For write we can optimize both loads and writebacks away.
