Fix union field access by representing unions as structs in SPIR-V

When a union has multiple fields, represent it as a struct with all fields
at offset 0 instead of just using the largest field. This allows pointer
casts between union fields to work correctly by enabling the
recover_access_chain_from_offset function to find valid access chains.

Fixes #241.
