…2-bit platforms On 32-bit architectures (ARM, 386, MIPS), 64-bit atomic operations require 8-byte memory alignment. In uber-go/atomic, Int64 and Duration embedded raw int64 values which have 4-byte alignment on 32-bit architectures, causing unaligned 64-bit atomic panics when embedded in structs. Update internal/gen-atomicint/wrapper.tmpl and generated types to wrap standard library sync/atomic typed atomic types (sync/atomic.Int64, sync/atomic.Uint64, etc.), which embed _ align64 to guarantee 8-byte alignment across 32-bit architectures. Fixes uber-go#105

Summary
On 32-bit architectures (ARM, 386, MIPS), 64-bit atomic operations (
atomic.Store64,atomic.Load64, etc.) require 8-byte memory alignment. BecauseInt64andDurationpreviously embedded rawint64without 8-byte alignment padding or typed sync/atomic wrappers, embedding these types within larger structs on 32-bit architectures could result in a 4-byte aligned field offset, leading to:Changes
