Do not under-align pseudovectors
Problem reported by Fabrice Popineau in: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-10/msg00357.html Also see diagnosis by Eli Zaretskii in: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2017-10/msg00476.html * src/alloc.c (vector_alignment): Now a multiple of alignof (max_align_t).
