Fix alignment of GIN in-line posting lists stored in entry tuples. The Sparc machines in the buildfarm are crashing because of misaligned access to posting lists stored in entry tuples.
I accidentally removed a critical SHORTALIGN() from ginFormTuple, as part of the packed posting lists patch. Perhaps I thought it was unnecessary, because the index_form_tuple() call above the SHORTALIGN already aligned the size, missing the fact that the null-category byte makes it misaligned again (I think the SHORTALIGN is indeed unnecessary if there's no null- category byte, but let's just play it safe...)
