set repr to transparent for various types #402

Now that the representation is fixed, these types can be embedded into other structures such as AMD's VMCB and VMSA or Intel's ATTRIBUTES (SGX).

We should bump our bitflags dependency to v1.3 though. Earlier versions don't mention that repr(transparent) is valid.
