move the alignment macro to compiler.h

because mem.h is dropped in the Linux kernel.

Changed macro definition order (gcc/clang/msvc before c11)
due to a limitation in the kernel source builder.

Changed the backup to sizeof(),
reverting to previous behavior when no support of alignof() is detected.
