libobjc: Fixed gnu-api-2-objc.m testcase


This patch fixes two errors in the gnu-api-2-objc.m testcase for libobjc's Modern Objective-C API.

One of them is that class_addIvar() was called with the alignment, instead of the log2 of the alignment,
being passed as argument.  The error slipped in because a previous, buggy version of libobjc's class_addIvar()
didn't use the log2, and when fixing libobjc it seems I forgot to update this testcase.  It's important to fix this
in case people look at the testcase as an example of how to use the API. ;-)

The other one is that a root class was created, and an instance of it instantiated, without the required "isa" instance
variable to hold the Class.  This error slipped in because the instantiation was added later without realizing
the root class was a test, fake class without the required variable.  This is more serious and could cause the
testcase to fail under some conditions, depending on how the memory is allocated.  This patch fixes it. :-)

Committed to trunk.

Thanks

PS: I noticed that these testcases, and the gnu-api-2-class.m[m] ones, are failing on Apple m64.  That's a separate
issue and I'll submit a separate patch.
