Fangrui Song 60592fb6b6 coredump, vmcore: Set p_align to 4 for PT_NOTE
Tools like readelf/llvm-readelf use p_align to parse a PT_NOTE program
header as an array of 4-byte entries or 8-byte entries. Currently, there
are workarounds[1] in place for Linux to treat p_align==0 as 4. However,
it would be more appropriate to set the correct alignment so that tools
do not have to rely on guesswork. FreeBSD coredumps set p_align to 4 as
well.
