This patch set eliminates warnings detected by clang with respect
to type alignments. Vittorio Toso had submitted something
similar. In this version, I took into account comments by
Christophe Fergeau regarding how to know which casts were
aligned and which ones were not aligned. I added some
instrumentation to detect the two cases.

v2 changes:

- Fix alignment used for checking (alignment of pointed type, not pointer)

- Disable checking entirely if NDEBUG is defined.

- Add G_UNLIKELY to indicate that the branch is not likely to be taken

I saw no obvious equivalent of NDEBUG in Spice code, so I used NDEBUG,
which is the macro used to disable assert() defined in <assert.h>.

v3 changes:

- Group all stylistic changes together

- Additional style consistency cleanup suggested by Frediano

- Disable misaligned check unless compiled with CFLAGS=-DSPICE_DEBUG_ALIGNMENT

v4 changes:

Add --enable-alignment-checks configuration option, disable runtime checks
by default.

Christophe de Dinechin (3):
  Avoid clang warnings on casts with stricter alignment requirements
  Put alignment checks under #ifdef SPICE_DEBUG_ALIGNMENT
  Add configure option for --enable-alignment-checks
