1115. C-compatible alignment specification

[Voted into the WP at the November, 2010 meeting in document N3190.]

The C and C++ approaches to alignment are incompatible. See document PL22.16 10-0083 = WG21 N3093 for details.

Notes from the August, 2010 meeting:

CWG agreed that the alignment specifier should be a keyword instead of an attributes.
