Merge #4743

4743: Add tracking of packed repr, use it to highlight unsafe refs r=matklad a=Nashenas88

Taking a reference to a misaligned field on a packed struct is an
unsafe operation. Highlight that behavior. Currently, the misaligned
part isn't tracked, so this highlight is a bit too aggressive.

Fixes #4600
