Fix Stack Unwind Behavior of Libunwind-ARM

Disable UNW_ARM_METHOD_DWARF, which gets problematic with
assembly-created stacks in ARM systems.

Although previous commits have fixed the compatibility issues
between cpp stacks and libunwind-arm, the assembly part
(asmhelpers.S) had similar problems.

Fix #3462
