This makes
AlignedVecgeneric over alignments by using a markertrait AlignedByteChunkimpled for types with the same alignment and size (e.x.Align64<[u8; 64]>. Since#[repr(align(N))]is not a const generic, const generics couldn't be used for this, but this works nicely. We check thatmem::size_of::<C>() == mem::align_of::<C>()inAlignedVec's constructors to ensureAlignedByteChunkisimpled on valid types. Thus, I also ensured that theAlignedVecs were actually constructed, not transmuted throughunsafe { mem::zeroed() }.
