fix alignment in ape malloc We used to have a padding int in the structure after the next pointer, to align it to 16 bytes. On 64 bit architectures, the pointer was already 8 bits, so the padding misaligned things to 20 bytes. This fixes it so that we're explcit about the data alignment we want, instead of hoping that the various sizes line up.
