[Pixman] [PATCH 1/2] utils.c: On x86-32 unalign the stack before calling test_function

From: Søren Sandmann Pedersen <ssp at redhat.com>
GCC when compiling with -msse2 and -mssse3 will assume that the stack
is aligned to 16 bytes even on x86-32 and accordingly issue movdqa
instructions for stack allocated variables.
But despite what GCC thinks, the standard ABI on x86-32 only requires
a 4-byte aligned stack. This is true at least on Windows, but there
also was (and maybe still is) Linux code in the wild that assumed
this. When such code calls into pixman and hits something compiled
with -msse2, we get a segfault from the unaligned movdqas.
Pixman has worked around this issue in the past with the gcc attribute
"force_align_arg_pointer" but the problem has resurfaced now in
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68300
because pixman_composite_glyphs() is missing this attribute.
This patch makes fuzzer_test_main() call the test_function through a
trampoline, which, on x86-32, has a bit of assembly that deliberately
avoids aligning the stack to 16 bytes as GCC normally expects. The
result is that glyph-test now crashes.
The trampoline is marked noinline to work around what appears to be a
bug in GCC/OpenMP (and possibly later), where the test_function
pointer is not correctly passed to the assembly if the function is
inlined.
