tty: tty_buffer: switch data type to u8
There is no reason to have tty_buffer::data typed as unsigned long. Switch to u8, but preserve the ulong alignment using __aligned. This allows for the cast removal from char_buf_ptr(). And for use of struct_size() in the allocation in tty_buffer_alloc() -- in the next patch.
