bmalloc: Improved alignment in LargeChunk
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131895

Reviewed by Andreas Kling.

* bmalloc/Chunk.h:
* bmalloc/LargeChunk.h: Align to vmPageSize just like Chunk does.
Technically, the previous alignment was harmless, but I would prefer,
dear reader, not to have to explain the interlocking set of
circumstances that made it so.
