This PR proposes to add a new method `MemorySegment::maxByteAlignment` that returns the maximum byte alignment of a segment (both heap and native segments).
Clients can then use this method to determine if a segment is properly aligned for any given layout (e.g. following a `MemorySegment::reinterpret` operation).

Commit messages:
- Fix imports and copyright
- Update maxByteAlignment docs
- Improve doc and tests
- Add a MS::maxByteAlignment method
