## Message

```
stage2: pad out (non-packed) struct fields when lowering to bytes

* pad out (non-packed) struct fields when lowering to bytes to be
  saved in the binary - prior to this change, fields would be
  saved at non-aligned addresses leading to wrong accesses
* add a matching test case to `behavior/struct.zig` tests
* fix offset to field calculation in `struct_field_ptr` on `x86_64`

```
