Use __alignof__ instead of sizeof for stringfield length storage.

Kevin P Fleming suggested that r343157 should use __alignof__ instead
of sizeof. For most systems this won't be an issue, but better fix it
now while it's still fresh.

*
* Many systems prefer integers to be stored on aligned on memory locations.
* This macro will increase an offset so a value of the supplied type can be
* safely be stored on such a memory location.
*
* Examples:
* ast_align_for(0x17, int64_t) ==> 0x18
* ast_align_for(0x18, int64_t) ==> 0x18
* ast_align_for(0x19, int64_t) ==> 0x20
*
* Don't mind the ugliness, the compiler will optimize it.

* \brief Increase offset by the required alignment of type and make sure it is
* a multiple of said alignment.
* \param offset The value that should be increased.
* \param type The data type that room should be reserved for.
* \return The smallest multiple of alignof(type) larger than or equal to offset
* plus alignof(type).
* \see ast_align_for()
*
* A use case for this is when prepending length fields of type int to a buffer.
* If you keep the total used bytes a multiple of the size of the integer type,
* If you keep the offset a multiple of the alignment of the integer type,
* a next block of length+buffer will have the length field automatically
* aligned.
*
* It looks kind of ugly, but the compiler will optimize this down to 4 or 5
* inexpensive instructions (on x86_64).
*
* Examples:
* ast_add_and_make_multiple_of(0x18, sizeof(int64_t)) ==> 0x20
* ast_add_and_make_multiple_of(0x19, sizeof(int64_t)) ==> 0x28
