    doc: Update -falign-functions/-falign-loops/-falign-jumps
    
    Change -falign-functions=N to
    
        Align the start of functions to the next power-of-two greater than
        or equal to N.
    
    Add
    
        If '-falign-labels' is greater than this value, then its value is
        used instead.
    
    to -falign-loops=N and -falign-jumps=N.
