Details:

To prevent allocating too much memory, we need types, macros or includes (for
those ugly pragma-loving compilers) to align statically allocated memory like
the heap, the memp pools etc...

Ideally, we'd
- combine this with bug #47092 to move these big blocks to different memory
and
- add extra alignment requirements for every memp pool (so that the pbuf rx
pool can have a different alignment if the hardware requires so)
