> The bug: when Symbols are copied into the dynamic CDS archive, extra padding bytes may be copied, which triggers "buffer overflow" errors in asan.
> 
> The fix is to copy the exact number of bytes for Symbols.
> 
> Since `ArchiveBuilder::make_shallow_copy()` deals with different alignments and sizes, I renamed the variables and added comments/asserts to make the code more readable.
