PR gas/20312: Do not pad sections to alignment on failed assembly

Correct a regression from commit 85024cd8bcb9 ("Run write_object_file
after errors") causing unsuccessful assembly, which may be due to any
reason, such as supplying a valid source like this:

	.text
	.byte	0
	.err

to terminate with an assertion failure like:

test.s: Assembler messages:
test.s:3: Error: .err encountered
../as-new: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.24.51.20140628 internal error, aborting at .../gas/write.c line 608 in size_seg
../as-new: Please report this bug.

on targets whose default text section alignment is above 0, typically
RISC machines.

This is due to an attempt to set last text section's frag alignment to
0, requested from `subsegs_finish_section' where `frag_align_code
(alignment, 0)' is called with `alignment' set to 0 rather than the
section alignment if `had_errors' has returned true.  The call to
`subsegs_finish_section' is made from `subsegs_finish' from
`write_object_file' at unsuccessful completion, which previously wasn't
made.

Always set last section's frag alignment from the section alignment
then, forcing no section padding instead if completing unsuccessfully,
so that in that case alignment padding is still suppressed from any
listing generated, fixing assertion failures for these targets:
