I think this object_id cast introduced undefined behaviour - here's my layperson's interepretation of what's going on (full UBSAN output is pasted below):

cb_node.k is a uint8_t[], and hence can be 1-byte aligned (on my machine: offsetof(struct cb_node, k) == 21). We're casting its pointer to "struct object_id *", and later try to access object_id.hash within oidcpy_with_padding. My compiler assumes that an object_id pointer needs to be 4-byte aligned, and reading from a misaligned pointer means we hit undefined behaviour. (I think the 4-byte alignment requirement comes from the fact that object_id's largest member is an int?)

I'm not sure what an elegant and idiomatic fix might be - IIUC it's hard to guarantee misaligned access can't happen with a flex array that's being used for arbitrary data (you would presumably have to declare it as an array of whatever the largest supported type is, so that you can guarantee correct alignment even when cbtree is used with that type) - which might imply that k needs to be declared as a void pointer? That in turn would make cbtree.c harder to read.

Anyhow, here's the UBSAN output from t0000 running against next:

hash.h:277:14: runtime error: member access within misaligned address 0x7fcb31c4103d for type 'struct object_id', which requires 4 byte alignment
