  1. Expand and clarify primitive alignment 

    These changes are intended to make the section more informative and readable, without making any new normative claims.

* Specify that the alignment might be _less_ than the size, rather than just that it might be different. This is mandatory and stated in the previous section, but I think it's useful to reiterate here.
* Mention `u128`/`i128` as another example of alignment less than size, so that this doesn't sound like a mainly 32-bit thing.
* Add `usize`/`isize` to the size table, so it can be spotted at a glance.
