1. C ABI compatibility.

2. There's always a companion C compiler, as D relies on the existence of the C
runtime library.

3. It's the way the companion C compiler aligns.

4. Unions members are all at offset 0. Unions are aligned according to the
alignment of their largest field.

5. It is ignored for non-struct fields.
