Describe the contribution
Fix #295
Add a union wrapper for the abstract data field such that it will be aligned for 32 bit integer values and/or pointers, whichever is greater.
This removes cast alignment warnings in this code with compiling on CPU architectures with strict alignment requirements.
Testing performed
Build code with full warnings (including -Wcast-align) on both native (x86-64) and MIPS32
Execute CFE on native (x86-64) (with CI_LAB/TO_LAB that use OSAL-provided socket abstraction), confirm no changes in behavior.
Expected behavior changes
No compiler warning. No changes to runtime behavior.
System(s) tested on:
Linux MIPS 32 bit (build)
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, 64 bit (build + run)
