Description
Although `#pragma pack` is not part of the C standard, the most popular compilers support it. Can we make c2hs also recognize it and process it properly so that structs defined under some `#pragma pack` can be have the correct layout in Haskell?
Specifically, the layout of certain structs can be different when using certain `#pragma pack` values, e.g. `#pragma pack(1)`. If c2hs does not recognize `#pragma pack`, the layout it assumes will be different than what the C compiler uses.
There's `#pragma pack (N)`, `#pragma pack(push)` and `#pragma pack(pop)`.
