1. type-layout: be more specific about 32-bit alignments …

   The rust-reference implies that 64-bit types are aligned to 32-bit for
   platforms with 32-bit addresses. This is not necessarily correct. Fix
   the wording.
   
   Note that there is no general rule how data-types greater than the
   native address size are aligned. On most Unix'y systems, they use the
   native alignment of the platform. However, the Windows ABI aligns them
   to their size (up to at least 64-bit).
   
   There are advantages for either of those decisions. But we should at
   least make clear that there is no fixed rule for 32-bit platforms.
