  This patch syncs the scratch_buffer grom gnulib commit 3866ef6 with
GLIBC code.

Checked on x86_64-linux-gnu and on a build using build-many-glibcs.py
for all major architectures.

	* include/scratch_buffer.h (scratch_buffer): Use a C99 align method
	instead of GCC extension.
	* malloc/scratch_buffer_grow.c [!_LIBC]: Include libc-config.h.
	* malloc/scratch_buffer_grow_preserve.c [!_LIBC]: Likewise.
	* malloc/scratch_buffer_set_array_size.c [!_LIBC]: Likewise.

This change needs a declaration from the GCC folks (probably from 
Richard Biener) that it does not break aliasing analysis.  The old code 
uses a GCC extension (writing to a char array changes its dynamic type); 
it is not valid C.  I don't know if the GCC extension also applies if 
the storage site is declared with a non-char type.

Thanks,
Florian
