equeue: align passed-in buffer

Make equeue_create_inplace align the passed-in buffer and size to
sizeof(void *).

Really we should be aiming to align more for ARM, as blocks should be
8-byte aligned, but the internal heap mechanisms only work to 4-byte
alignment at the moment. More work would be needed to ensure 8-byte
alignment of allocated blocks.
