bug#61489: Increase BLOCK_ALIGN from 1024 to 32768
Originally discovered by Tyler Dodge in his article "Significant Garbage
Collection Improvement For Emacs".
While testing this change on Archlinux system with Intel i5-7200U CPU,
average time of garbage collection gets reduced by ≈25%. Other users
report improvements up to 50%. While monitoring PSS of emacs with and
without customizations loaded before and after the patch, no
statistically significant differences were discovered. So overall, this
change is a win.
