Define MAX_OFILE_ALIGNMENT for Tru64 UNIX


The recent failure of 

FAIL: gcc.dg/torture/pr47975.c  -O0  (test for excess errors)

/vol/gcc/src/hg/trunk/local/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/torture/pr47975.c:4:40: warning: alignment of 'x' is greater than maximum object file alignment.  Using 16 [enabled by default]

prompted me to finally look at the alignment requirements of Alpha
ECOFF.  Currently, MAX_OFILE_ALIGNMENT isn't defined, so it defaults to
BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT, i.e. 16 bytes.  But the Tru64 UNIX Object File and
Symbol Table Format Specification document a maximum alignment of 64 kB:

http://h30097.www3.hp.com/docs/base_doc/DOCUMENTATION/V51B_HTML/SUPPDOCS/OBJSPEC/NV20XXXX.HTM#nav2-29

The following patch implements this and fixes not only the testcase
above, but a considerable number of others.

Bootstrapped without regression on alpha-dec-osf5.1b, installed on
mainline.  Will backport to the 4.5 and 4.6 branches.
