The NgLibMemoryManager::ReallocImpl method prefixes the allocated memory with its size, and returns a pointer to the region after it. This pointer can however no longer be suitably aligned. On Arm 32bits this resulted in unaligned accesses, since the NEON vst1.64 instruction was used with a not properly aligned addresses. A reproducer is available at [1]. Correct this by allocating the maximum of the the size of the size_t and the max alignment. [1] victronenergy/venus#1559.
