Fix the default alignment of the allocations.
In order to enforce this constraint: The pointer returned if the allocation succeeds shall be suitably aligned so that it may be assigned to a pointer to any type of object and then used to access such an object in the space allocated. Force all allocations on 32 bit systems to have 8 byte alignment, and all allocations on 64 bit systems to have 16 byte alignment. Add a test to verify that the allocator returns the correct alignments. Bug: 26739265 Change-Id: I9af53279617408676b94e4ec6481b3ed7ffafc6a
