After thinking about such code, I wonder if it would be better to
support %(refname:lalign=X) instead of %(refname:lalignX).

The reason why it might be interesting to require an = sign between
"align" and the number X is that if we later want to introduce another
option with a name that starts with "lalign", for example
%(refname:lalignall=X) that would truncate the refname if it is bigger
than X), we might be more backward compatible with old git versions
that implement %(refname:lalign=X) but not %(refname:lalignall=X).

We will be more backward compatible because the above call to
starts_with() would probably be something like:

                       if (starts_with(formatp, "lalign=")) {

which means that old git versions would ignore something like "lalignall=X".
