pcre2: add patch fixing a build issue on m68k

A pretty nasty difference in alignment rules between most
architectures and m68k lead pcre2 to fail building its 16-bit and
32-bit variants on m68k. This commit adds a patch that fixes that.

+src/pcre2_intmodedep.h: fix alignment of fields in struct heapframe
+
+pcre2_intmodedep.h has a check to verify that the size of the struct
+heapframe is a multiple of 4 bytes. On most architectures this works
+fine, but not on m68k. Indeed, when building the 16-bit variant of
+pcre2, the heapframe structure contains:
+
+ PCRE2_UCHAR occu[2];
+ PCRE2_SPTR  eptr;
+
+Where PCRE2_UCHAR is a 16-bit data type, and PCRE2_SPTR is a
+pointer. The occu[] array starts at byte 0x32, so not aligned on a
+32-bit boundary. With 2 x 16-bit, the occur[] array ends at byte 0x36.
+
+Now, on most architectures, the alignment required for a pointer will
+make the eptr field start at 0x38 (on 32 bit architectures). However,
+on m68k, it is fine to have a pointer aligned only on a 16-bit
+boundary, and the eptr pointer will be at offset 0x36.
+
+This doesn't cause a problem per-se, but breaks the check that
+heapframe should be a multiple of 4 bytes.
+
+To fix this, we make sure eptr is aligned by introducing an unused
+field of 16 bits after the occu[] array (in the 16-bit variant) or
+after the occu[] array (in the 32-bit variant). These choices have
+been made to keep the structure layout unchanged.
+
+Fixes the following build failure on m68k:
+
+src/pcre2_intmodedep.h:818:14: error: size of array 'check_heapframe_size' is negative
+ typedef char check_heapframe_size[
