[PATCH for-6.2 1/1] tcg/arm: Reduce vector alignment requirement for NEON

[Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org>]

With arm32, the ABI gives us 8-byte alignment for the stack.
While it's possible to realign the stack to provide 16-byte alignment,
it's far easier to simply not encode 16-byte alignment in the
VLD1 and VST1 instructions that we emit.

Remove the assertion in temp_allocate_frame, limit natural alignment
to the provided stack alignment, and add a comment.
