suite_aggrs (still ahead of checked in version of dyncall, sorry): - renaming struct -> aggr - added knobs to: * control struct packing * whether to test immutability of aggr-by-val params * how to copy aggrs (field by field or via = op (which might do a memcpy and thus copy padding garbage, also)) - some macros to reduce file sizes of generated cases - setting default misalignment to 1

suite_aggrs for dyncall written in C and Lua.

Tests aggregates (structs, unions and arrays) passed by value, along with
other, non-aggregate args. Note, arrays are only passed/returned by value as
members of structs and unions, as they woult decay to a pointer if passed to a
function and cannot be returned.
So this test suite does not generate any arrays outside of structs and unions.

A macro AGGR_MISALIGN can be used in globals.c to intentionally misalign
aggregate instances.
