Previously `tests/pkg_littlefs2` crashed on the `samr21-xpro`. This
now aligns the buffers in `littlefs2_desc_t` to the alignment
requirement of `uint32_t`.
Specifically the issue causing the crash at hand was that
`struct lfs_free::buffer` is of type `uint32_t *`, so access are
expected to be aligned to `uint32_t`. After this commit, this
assumption is fulfilled.

Using a `BLE_ADDR_RANDOM` as the peer address type allows connecting only to peers that have a static random address. Deriving the peer address type from the peer address is simple and allows connections to be established with peers that have either a public or
static random address.
If the Bluetooth 5 Advertising Extension is enabled by the `nimble_adv_ext` module, up to 3 events come in from the controller during connection establishment before they are processed by the host. The default size of the event queue `MYNEWT_VAL_BLE_TRANSPORT_EVT_COUNT` with only 2 entries is therefore too small and the connection establishment fails.
A if `netdev_driver_t::confirm_send()` is provided, it provides the
new netdev API. However, detecting the API at runtime and handling
both API styles comes at a cost. This can be optimized in case only
new or only old style netdevs are in use.
To do so, this adds the pseudo modules `netdev_legacy_api` and
`netdev_new_api`. As right now no netdev actually implements the new
API, all netdevs pull in `netdev_legacy_api`. If `netdev_legacy_api` is
in used but `netdev_new_api` is not, we can safely assume at compile
time that only legacy netdevs are in use. Similar, if only
`netdev_new_api` is used, only support for the new API is needed. Only
when both are in use, run time checks are needed.
This provides two helper function to check for a netif if the
corresponding netdev implements the old or the new API. (With one
being the inverse of the other.) They are suitable for constant folding
when only new or only legacy devices are in use. Consequently, dead
branches should be eliminated by the optimizer.
