fs/binfmt_flat.c: split the stack & data alignments

The stack and data have different alignment requirements, so don't force
them to wear the same shoe.  Increase the data alignment to match that
which the elf2flt linker script has always been using: 0x20 bytes.  Not
only does this bring the kernel loader in line with the toolchain, but it
also fixes a swath of gcc tests which try to force larger alignment values
but randomly fail when the FLAT loader fails to deliver.
