Rename FastMath.toMultipleOf to alignToPowerOfTwo and provide generic implementation

[Copilot]

FastMath.toMultipleOf used bitwise operations that only work when p is a power of two, causing incorrect results otherwise. The method name implied general-purpose functionality.

Changes

New alignToPowerOfTwo(int n, int p) method

• Renamed implementation with validation that p is a power of two
• Throws IllegalArgumentException for non-power-of-two values
• Preserves optimized bitwise operation: ((n - 1) | (p - 1)) + 1

Reimplemented toMultipleOf(int n, int p) method

• Now works for any positive integer p
• Uses bitwise operation for power-of-two values (optimization)
• Uses modulo-based algorithm for other values: n + (p - (n % p))

Updated BufferLayout.align()

• Changed to call alignToPowerOfTwo (buffer alignments are always powers of two)

Example

// Old behavior (incorrect for non-power-of-two)
FastMath.toMultipleOf(10, 3);  // Returned 11 (wrong)

// New behavior
FastMath.toMultipleOf(10, 3);       // Returns 12 (correct)
FastMath.alignToPowerOfTwo(10, 4);  // Returns 12 (power-of-two only)
FastMath.alignToPowerOfTwo(10, 3);  // Throws IllegalArgumentException

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)

<issue_title>FastMath.toMultipleOf should be renamed to FastMath.alignToPowerOfTwo</issue_title>
<issue_description>See: #1782 (comment)

The FastMath.toMultipleOf , used by the ubo implementation, only works for p that is a power of two, this can be confusing for devs looking to use FastMath apis in their code.

It should be renamed to alignToPowerOfTwo, and a generic implementation for toMultipleOf should be provided in place of the current one.</issue_description>
