Introduce LTC_NO_STRUCT_PADDING.

#751 (comment)

The only exception is the LTC_NO_STRUCT_PADDING part, which I would suggest moving into a separate PR and perhars discuss pros/cons there. I have doubts whether it will work as expected, especially the change from ulong64 dummy[8] to void *padding[8]. In my opinion, this goes in the wrong direction as the reserved area becomes platform-dependent: 64 bytes vs. 32 bytes, depending on the pointer size.

That's indeed going to become platform-dependent, but struct sizes always are as soon as they contain platform-dependent types like int or pointer types.

};                                                                         

The idea was to pad the struct up to an even size, e.g. a multiple of 32 bytes, and currently I only did that for x86_64, so we should
a) decide whether this makes sense or whether we should simply pad with some members of ulong64
and if we want to pad up to a specific size
b) decide what value to pad up to
c) do this for 32bit archs as well

Does that make sense?
