Currently the RISC-V backend does not realign the stack. This can be an issue even for the RV32I/RV64I ABIs (where the stack is 16-byte aligned), though is rare. It will be much more comment with RV32E (though the alignment requirements for common data types remain under-documented...).
This patch adds minimal support for stack realignment. It should cope with large realignments. It will error out if the stack needs realignment and variable sized objects are present.
It feels like a lot of the code like getFrameIndexReference and determineFrameLayout could be refactored somehow, as right now it feels fiddly and brittle. We also seem to allocate a lot more memory than GCC does for equivalent C code.
still stack => still access stack
