provide type_align gdbarch function for nios2
Commit Message
The attached patch fixes almost 400 failures in gdb.base/align.exp and
related tests due to a missing definition for the type_align hook for
nios2. I swiped the definition of the hook from the arc backend which
has similar conventions: the alignment of byte/halfword types matches
their size, but all types 4 bytes or larger are aligned on a 4-byte
boundary.
OK to commit?
