[issue8469] struct - please make sizes explicit

Thanks for the additional suggestions and patch.  I've implemented most of them in revisions r81992 through r81995.

I've left the note about 'native size and alignment':  native alignment *is* determined using sizeof, and I think this is important information.

I've also re-added the information that the 'f' and 'd' formats use IEEE binary32 and binary64, as a note to the format characters table.

And I've moved the information that the 'P' format is only available in native mode to the 'format characters' section.

Additional suggestions for improvments welcome!
