packed structs with MSVC / IAR format

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I suggest adding support also for MSVC / IAR compiler way of marking packed 
structs:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2e70t5y1.aspx

This requires a #pragma pack(1) before struct and #pragma pack() after the 
struct definition.

Can you check if IAR compiler supports the __pragma instead of #pragma? This 
would make it easier to #define it. For example, try this code:

__pragma(pack(push, 1))
struct foobar {
    char foo;
    int bar;
}
__pragma(pack(pop));

IAR seems to support following format:

_Pragma("pack(push, 1)")
_Pragma("pack(pop)")

but not __pragma(pack(push, 1)).

Use of IAR compiler can be checked with Preprocessor define __ICCARM__
