Functions with jump tables need an alignment of 4 because they use the ADR
instruction, which aligns the PC to 4 bytes before adding an offset.

This appears to have been introduced back in r76698 as part of an unrelated
change. I can find no official ARM documentation stating that Thumb-2 functions
require 4-byte alignment; in fact, ARM documentation appears to contradict
this (see, e.g., ARM Architecture Reference Manual Thumb-2 Supplement,
section 2.6.1: "Thumb-2 enforces 16-bit alignment on all instructions.").
Also remove code that sets alignment for ARM functions, which is redundant
with code in the MachineFunction constructor, and remove the hidden
-arm-align-constant-islands flag, which has been enabled by default since
r146739 (Dec 2011) and has probably received sufficient testing by now.
