Michael Brown 7ecfe7159f [prefix] Pad .text16 and .data16 segment sizes at build time
Commit c64747d ("[librm] Speed up real-to-protected mode transition
under KVM") rounded down the .text16 segment address calculated in
alloc_basemem() to a multiple of 64 bytes in order to speed up mode
transitions under KVM.

This creates a potential discrepancy between alloc_basemem() and
free_basemem(), meaning that free_basemem() may free less memory than
was allocated by alloc_basemem().

Fix by padding the calculated sizes of both .text16 and .data16 to a
multiple of 64 bytes at build time.
