     Change stack alignment to 16+8 bytes in STG code

     This patch changes the STG code so that %rsp to be aligned
     to a 16-byte boundary + 8. This is the alignment required by
     the x86_64 ABI on entry to a function. Previously we kept
     %rsp aligned to a 16-byte boundary, but this was causing
     problems for the LLVM backend (see #4211).

     We now don't need to invoke llvm stack mangler on
     x86_64 targets. Since the stack is now 16+8 byte algined in
     STG land on x86_64, we don't need to mangle the stack
     manipulations with the llvm mangler.

     This patch only modifies the alignement for x86_64 backends.
