New commit message:

    types: Split aligned and packed guids

    On ia64 alignment requirements are strict. When we pass a pointer to
    UUID it needs to be at least 4-byte aligned or EFI will crash.
    On the other hand in device path there is no padding for UUID, so we
    need 2 types in one formor another. Make 4-byte aligned and unaligned types

    The code is structured in a way to accept unaligned inputs
    in most cases and supply 4-byte aligned outputs.

    Efiemu case is a bit ugly because there inputs and outputs are
    reversed and so we need careful casts to account for this
    inversion.
