Use `zeros` padding for unaligned parts and `nops` for aligned parts.
This is consistent with gas behavior, and is necessary to compile the
Linux kernel with `LLVM IAS`.

Replace `support::endian::write` with `OS.write`. This looks simpler
and switches the bytes to not be dependant on the endianness, even
though we only have little endian.
