    libpayload: Don't do unaligned accesses during LZMA decompression
    
    Use memcpy to access a uint32_t that's inherently unaligned due to the layout
    of the LZMA header format.
    
    Built and booted on Daisy and saw a data abort go away. Built and booted
    into developer mode on Link and verified that bitmaps were
    decompressed/displayed correctly.
