sandbox: Align RAM buffer to the machine page size

At present the sandbox RAM buffer is not aligned to any particular
address boundary. This makes the internal pointers somewhat random with
respect to the associated RAM buffer addresses.

Align the buffer to the page size of the machine to help with this. Note
that there is a header at the start of the allocated pointer. To avoid
returning a pointer which is not aligned to a page boundary, we waste
almost an entire page of memory for each allocation.
