Philip Withnall 7a8756d247 gobject: Add advice on larger alignment requirements for GObject members
We now guarantee that GObjects will always be allocated at least as
aligned as the basic types. If you want to put an element in your
GObject which has higher alignment requirements, we can’t guarantee it
will be aligned*. If you need it to be aligned, you’ll need to put it on
the heap (aligned appropriately), or add appropriate padding in your
GObject struct.

*Actually, GSlice will guarantee that the whole GObject is aligned to at
least the power of 2 greater than or equal to the size of the GObject,
which means any element in the GObject struct should always be
appropriate aligned if the compiler pads it appropriately. If malloc()
is used, however, it doesn’t make that guarantee, so we can’t make that
guarantee overall.
