Fix shm_toc.c to always return buffer-aligned memory.

Previously, if you passed a non-aligned size to shm_toc_create(), the
memory returned by shm_toc_allocate() would be similarly non-aligned.
This was exposed by commit 3cda10f41b, which allocated structs containing
a pg_atomic_uint64 field with shm_toc_allocate(). On systems with
MAXIMUM_ALIGNOF = 4, such structs still need to be 8-bytes aligned, but
the memory returned by shm_toc_allocate() was only 4-bytes aligned.

It's quite bogus that we abuse BUFFERALIGN to align the structs for
pg_atomic_uint64. It doesn't really have anything to do with buffers. But
that's a separate issue.

This ought to fix the buildfarm failures on 32-bit x86 systems.
