This change may have backward compatibility issue but
most probably the sane program never used sections with
base address less then instruction alignment.
Note that alignment may only increase which means if a
section is aligned on 2^5 the align 2^4 will not affect
the section.

Remove unnecessary duplicated patterns; with indirection we can handle
lists of any length.
For 16-bit generic padding, alternate between SI and DI dependencies.

Use a "times" construct rather than "%rep" for higher performance.
No need to preprocess the same line over and over for no good reason.

Apparently the current recommendation is for a smaller threshold when
using the "generic"-style alignment macros (short jumps are cheaper on
newer CPUs.)
Also change the alignment threshold definition to reflect the maximum
number of padding instead of when to start using jumps.
Add a builtin equivalent to the %include directive called %use.
%use includes a standard macro file compiled into the binary; these
come from the macros/ directory in the source code.
The idea here is to be able to provide optional macro packages with
the distribution, without adding complex host filesystem dependencies.
