Fixes PR51626.

The M68k requires that all instruction, word and long word reads are
aligned to word boundaries. From the 68020 onwards, there is a
performance benefit from aligning long words to long word boundaries.

The M68k uses the same data layout for pointers and integers.

In line with this, this commit updates the pointer data layout to
match the layout already set for 32-bit integers: 32:16:32.
