John Paul Adrian Glaubitz 319d3205ce Bug 1325771 - mfbt: Reorder parameters for MOZ_ALIGNED_DECL r=jwalden
Currently, MOZ_ALIGNED_DECL uses the order (_type, _align) for its
parameters. However, this order makes the code less readable when
_type is a larger object like a struct because the value for _align
would be at the end of the struct definition. By swapping the order
of _type and _align, the alignment value will always be next to
the type name, regardless how far the definition of _type extends.
