Attach _Alignas to names and refactor _Alignas checks (#133)
* Refactor common code of alignas. Instead of working on attributes the function now works directly on the type since the check always performed an extraction of attributes from a type. Bug 23393 * Attach _Alignas to the name. Bug 23393 * Attach "aligned" attributes to names So that __attribute((aligned(N))) remains consistent with _Alignas(N). gcc and clang apply "aligned" attributes to names, with a special case for typedefs: typedef __attribute((aligned(16))) int int_al_16; int_al_16 * p; __attribute((aligned(16))) int * q; For gcc, p is naturally-aligned pointer to 16-aligned int and q is 16-aligned pointer to naturally-aligned int. For CompCert with this commit, both p and q are 16-aligned pointers to naturally-aligned int. * Resurrect the alignment test involving typedef The test was removed because it involved an _Alignas in a typedef, which is no longer supported. However the same effect can be achieved with an "aligned" attribute, which is still supported in typedef.
