Rollup merge of #146178 - folkertdev:static-align, r=jdonszelmann,ralfjung,traviscross
Implement `#[rustc_align_static(N)]` on `static`s

Tracking issue: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/146177

```rust
#![feature(static_align)]

#[rustc_align_static(64)]
static SO_ALIGNED: u64 = 0;
```

We need a different attribute than `rustc_align` because unstable attributes are tied to their feature (we can't have two unstable features use the same unstable attribute). Otherwise this uses all of the same infrastructure as `#[rustc_align]`.

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
