Use PGAlignedXLogBlock for some code simplification

The code in BootStrapXLOG() and in pg_test_fsync.c tried to align WAL
buffers in complicated ways.  Also, they still used XLOG_BLCKSZ for
the alignment, even though that should now be PG_IO_ALIGN_SIZE.  This
can now be simplified and made more consistent by using
PGAlignedXLogBlock, either directly in BootStrapXLOG() and using
alignas in pg_test_fsync.c.
