For historic reasons, the behavior of .align differs between targets.
Fortunately, there are alternatives, .p2align and .balign, which make the
interpretation of the parameter explicit, and which behave consistently across
targets.
This patch teaches MC to use .p2align instead of .align, so that people reading
code for multiple architectures don't have to remember which way each platform
does its .align directive.

- There is a minor semantic change here (evidenced by the test change) for
Darwin triples that have no version component. I debated changing the default
behavior of isOSVersionLT, but decided it made more sense for triples to be
explicit.
