[CGP] Add generic TargetLowering::shouldAlignPointerArgs() implementation
This function was added for ARM targets, but aligning global/stack pointer arguments passed to memcpy/memmove/memset can improve code size and performance for all targets that don't have fast unaligned accesses. This adds a generic implementation that adjusts the alignment to pointer size if unaligned accesses are slow. Review D134168 suggests that this significantly improves performance on synthetic benchmarks such as Dhrystone on RV32 as it avoids memcpy() calls.
