When a section's start address is set explicitly and is not aligned to
the alignment of its contents, the linker will rearrange them so that
everything lines up provided that the misalignment is preserved.
Since we cannot do the same in PE/COFF, don't set the .data start
address directly, but advance the location pointer by the same amount.
This way, the linker will be free to choose the start address, but will
ultimately end up using the exact same value.
