ART: Compress LengthPrefixedArray on 32-bit targets.
Previously, the LengthPrefixedArray<ArtMethod> on 32-bit targets contained a 64-bit length field followed by the ArtMethod elements with size only a multiple of 4, not 8. Consequently, an odd-length array broke the alignment for the following array which would have the 64-bit length placed at an unaligned address. To fix that, we make the length field 32-bit and explicitly pass the alignment information to the LengthPrefixedArray. This also makes the 32-bit boot image a bit smaller. On Nexus 5, AOSP, ToT, the field section is 11528B smaller and the method section is 21036B smaller. 64-bit targets should see the same savings for the field section but no difference for the methods section.
