runtime: don't crash on nil pointers in checkptrAlignment

Ironically, checkptrAlignment had a latent case of bad pointer
arithmetic: if ptr is nil, then `add(ptr, size-1)` might produce an
illegal pointer value.

The fix is to simply check for nil at the top of checkptrAlignment,
and short-circuit if so.

This CL also adds a more explicit bounds check in checkptrStraddles,
rather than relying on `add(ptr, size-1)` to wrap around. I don't
think this is necessary today, but it seems prudent to be careful.

Fixes #47430.
