C++ PATCH for c++/65945 (nullptr_t alignment)

It's trivial to fix the alignment of nullptr_t, but I was concerned
about ABI impact. On further research it seems that it won't cause any
trouble with argument alignment, since that doesn't seem to rely on
TYPE_ALIGN at all; I think the only ABI breakage would come from
unaligned nullptr_t fields in classes, which I expect to be very rare.
The testcases that were breaking on SPARC and ARM without this fix have
to do with local stack slots, which are not part of an interface.
Activating the warning requires passing an explicit version number to
-Wabi, e.g. -Wabi=8.
Tested x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, applying to trunk and 5.
