tools/foreign: avoid using alignment directives when not appropriate
The foreign header generation blindly replaces 'uint64_t' with '__align8__
uint64_t', to get correct alignment when built as 32bit. This is correct in
most circumstances, but Clang objects to two specific uses.
* Inside a sizeof() expression
* As part of a typecast
An example error looks like:
/local/xen.git/tools/libxc/../../tools/include/xen/foreign/x86_64.h:204:44:
error: 'aligned' attribute ignored when parsing type [-Werror,-Wignored-attributes]
__align8__ uint64_t evtchn_mask[sizeof(__align8__ uint64_t) * 8];
^~~~~~~~~~
/local/xen.git/tools/libxc/../../tools/include/xen/foreign/x86_64.h:13:36:
note: expanded from macro '__align8__'
^~~~~~~~~~~
This sedary is sufficient to fix all the bad examples without touching any of
the legitimate uses, and is more simple than teaching mkheader.py how to parse
C.
