Code is running at full speed, when patching unaligned instructions spanning cache lines, concurrency issues may occur. This patch fixes a potential alignment issue of the patchable nop after MachUEPNode, with adding some strong alignment assertions as well. (In fact, currently the `nop` in the Verified Entry Point is fortunately aligned to 4 under RVC even without this patch, so this patch doesn't change program behaviors.)
