Reject packed structs from linker

XMLWordPrintable

      After investigation, the ABI specification for packed structs turned out to be too minimal/not robust enough to implement support on top of (without looking at what e.g. GCC generates and guessing the semantics from that).

      For now we have decided to just reject packed struct altogether.
