adjust i386 max_align_t definition to work around some broken compilers

at least gcc 4.7 claims c++11 support but does not accept the alignas
keyword, causing breakage when stddef.h is included in c++11 mode.
instead, prefer using __attribute__((__aligned__)) on any compiler
with GNU extensions, and only use the alignas keyword as a fallback
for other C++ compilers.

C code should not be affected by this patch.
