Packed structs

Is it possible? Would be very nice to have 😄

I was trying to read/write BMP files, I tried to use CStruct5[...] for BITMAPFILEHEADER but read wrong values due to alignment.

There are workarounds of course (use a Ptr[Byte] then write some extension methods to access the fields by adding correct offsets manually, or use Scodec). But sure would be nice to have some "built-in" mechanism 😄
