rts: Statically assert alignment of Capability

In #22965 we noticed that changes in the size of `Capability` can result
in unsound behavior due to the `align` pragma claiming an alignment
which we don't in practice observe. Avoid this by statically asserting
that the size is a multiple of the alignment.

(cherry picked from commit 01661e4eb0c467993f823903a10e80559ea9c249)
