Yesterday, folks were saying that sometimes 32-bit platforms need
8-byte alignment for certain 64-bit operations, so I shouldn't fall
back to 4-byte alignment there. But actually, looking at this more
closely, I can just make SIPHASH_ALIGNMENT == __alignof__(u64), which
will take care of all possible concerns, since gcc knows best which
platforms need what alignment. Thanks for making this clear to me with
"the alignment of u64 (not the size of u64)".

Okay. We can be turtles.
