CODE_STYLE: add column alignment section

Note that since the added examples are for column alignment I had to
encapsulate with ~~~c markdown to preserve their alignment.

+## Column alignment
+
+Some statements cannot be completed on a single line because the line would
+be too long, the statement too hard to read, or due to other style guidelines
+above. In such a case the statement will span multiple lines.
+
+If a continuation line is part of an expression or sub-expression then you
+should align on the appropriate column so that it's easy to tell what part of
+the statement it is. Operators should not start continuation lines. In other
+cases follow the 2-space indent guideline. Here are some examples from libcurl:

 Use `#ifdef HAVE_FEATURE` to do conditional code. We avoid checking for
