Try to shrink `Alignment`-related MIR in `Layout`

Noticed all this in <https://rust.godbolt.org/z/55Tx65v4e>:
```rust
        _22 = (_11.0: std::ptr::alignment::AlignmentEnum);
        _23 = discriminant(_22);
        _24 = Ge(_23, const 1_u64);
        _25 = Le(_23, const 9223372036854775808_u64);
        _26 = BitAnd(move _24, move _25);
        assume(move _26);
        _20 = _23 as usize (IntToInt);
```

So let's see if a non-`as` here works better.
