Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

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.

Reverting this because it breaks static linking on ppc64. Specifically, it may be linkonce_odr functions that are the problem.
With this patch, if you link statically, calls to some functions end up calling their descriptor addresses instead
of calling to their entry points. This causes the execution to fail with SIGILL (b/c the descriptor address just
has some pointers, not code).

The standard function epilog includes a .size directive, but ppc64 uses
an alternate local symbol to tag the actual start of each function.
Until recently, binutils accepted the .size directive as:
.size test1, .Ltmp0-test1
however, using this directive with recent binutils will result in the error:
.size expression for XXX does not evaluate to a constant
so we must use the label which actually tags the start of the function.
