Gary Guo 65f6abf9fa rust: io: add missing safety requirement in IoCapable methods
The current safety comment on `io_read`/`io_write` does not cover the topic
about alignment. Add it so it can be relied on by implementor of
`IoCapable`.

Expand the check performed by `Io` by taking `self.addr()` into
consideration when checking if `offset` is aligned. For the compile-time
`io_addr_assert` check, check using the known minimum alignment of
`Io::Target` and the accessed type.

While at it, fix the alignment check to use `align_of` instead of
`size_of`. The values match for all primitives (including u64, given that
we do not provide u64 accessor on 32-bit platforms), but are not
necessarily true for custom types.
