[vlc-devel] [PATCH] core: add aligned_free to match the aligned_alloc used in the code

[Steve Lhomme]

On Windows if you allocate aligned memory you need to free it with an aligned
version of free.

This is similar to the old vlc_memalign() + vlc_free()

--
replaces https://patches.videolan.org/patch/16993/
- fix align_free call instead of aligned_free
replaces https://patches.videolan.org/patch/16994/
- inline the call to aligned_free() in vlc_fixups.h
replaces https://patches.videolan.org/patch/16996/
- don't test in configure.ac since aligned_free doesn't exist
