[libcxxabi] Align unwindHeader on a double-word boundary.

r276215 made a change to annotate _Unwind_Exception with attribute
"aligned" so that an exception object following field __cxa_exception
is sufficiently aligned. This fix hasn't been incorporated to unwind.h
on Darwin since it is an ABI breaking change.

Instead of annotating struct _Unwind_Exception with the attribute, this
commit annotates field unwindHeader of __cxa_exception. This ensures the
exception object is sufficiently aligned without breaking the ABI.

This recommits r302978 and r302981, which were reverted in r303016
because a libcxx test was failing on an AArch64 bot. I also modified the
libcxxabi test case to check the alignment of the pointer returned by
__cxa_allocate_exception rather than compiling the test with -O1 and
checking whether it segfaults.
