Since IPHC also manipulates the total number of bytes of a received
datagram (by decompressing it), this also needs to be exposed. I guess
I was too focused on introducing a *generic* packet buffer for a future
virtual reassembly buffer (where it isn't needed, but so isn't `pkt` to
be honest), that I totally forgot about it in #9352.
This fixes an alignment issue I encountered in the static version of
the packet buffer.
The bug is caused by a race-condition where a certain order of
operations leads to a chunk being released according to the
byte-alignment of the platform, but overlapping potential space for
a future `_unused_t` struct e.g. (x mark allocated regions):
Future leak of size sizeof(_unused_t) Time

Sadly, I wasn't able to create a reproducable unittest that show-cases
this corner-case, since I don't understand the order of operations that
cause this one 100%, but the bug is reproducable (but also not
reliably) by sending large (i.e. fragmented) packets to a 6Lo-enabled
host from more than 1 host simultaneously (use `gnrc_pktbuf_cmd` to
check).
By making the size of `_unused_t` the only condition for alignment,
this bug is fixed.
- Added unit tests for new integer only arithmetic
- Temperature conversion differs at most 0.01°C from double arithmetic
- Humidity conversions differs at most 0.1% from double arithmetic
