Subject: [PATCH] py: Make sure that static emg-exc-buffer is aligned to size
 of mp_obj_t.

This buffer is used to allocate objects temporarily, and such objects
require that their underlying memory be correctly aligned for their data
type.  Aligning for mp_obj_t should be sufficient for emergency exceptions,
but in general the memory buffer should aligned to the maximum alignment of
the machine (eg on a 32-bit machine with mp_obj_t being 4 bytes, a double
may not be correctly aligned).

This patch fixes a bug for certain nan-boxing builds, where mp_obj_t is 8
bytes and must be aligned to 8 bytes (even though the machine is 32 bit).
