dm space map common: memcpy the disk root to ensure it's arch aligned
The metadata_space_map_root passed to sm_ll_open_metadata() may or may not be arch aligned, use memcpy to ensure it is. This is not a fast path so the extra memcpy doesn't hurt us. Long-term it'd be better to use the kernel's alignment infrastructure to remove the memcpy()s that are littered across persistent-data (btree, array, space-maps, etc).
