Let the target choose a vectorisation alignment

Let the target choose a vectorisation alignment

The vectoriser aligned vectors to TYPE_ALIGN unconditionally, although
there was also a hard-coded assumption that this was equal to the type
size.  This was inconvenient for SVE for two reasons:

- When compiling for a specific power-of-2 SVE vector length, we might
  want to align to a full vector.  However, the TYPE_ALIGN is governed
  by the ABI alignment, which is 128 bits regardless of size.

- For vector-length-agnostic code it doesn't usually make sense to align,
  since the runtime vector length might not be a power of two.  Even for
  power of two sizes, there's no guarantee that aligning to the previous
  16 bytes will be an improveent.

This patch therefore adds a target hook to control the preferred
vectoriser (as opposed to ABI) alignment.
