stdalign tests: Skip test with AIX xlclang

[Bruno Haible]

With the 'xlclang' compiler on AIX, I see no way to make 'alignas' or
'_Alignas' work. The unit test keeps failing:

../../gltests/test-stdalign.c:93: assertion '(uintptr_t) &(static_char_alignas) 
% TEST_ALIGNMENT == 0' failed

We can mark this test as SKIP, since it's an expected failure now.
