New commit message:
types: Split aligned and packed guids
On ia64 alignment requirements are strict. When we pass a pointer to
UUID it needs to be at least 4-byte aligned or EFI will crash.
On the other hand in device path there is no padding for UUID, so we
need 2 types in one formor another. Make 4-byte aligned and unaligned types
The code is structured in a way to accept unaligned inputs
in most cases and supply 4-byte aligned outputs.
Efiemu case is a bit ugly because there inputs and outputs are
reversed and so we need careful casts to account for this
inversion.
