TYPEALIGN doesn't work on int64 on 32-bit platforms.
The TYPEALIGN macro, and the related ones like MAXALIGN, don't work with values larger than intptr_t, because TYPEALIGN casts the argument to intptr_t to do the arithmetic. That's not a problem when dealing with pointers or lengths or offsets related to pointers, but the XLogInsert scaling patch added a call to MAXALIGN with an XLogRecPtr argument. To fix, add wider variants of the macros, called TYPEALIGN64 and MAXALIGN64, which are just like the existing variants but work with uint64 instead of intptr_t. Report and patch by David Rowley, analysis by Andres Freund.
