In thunk_type_align() and thunk_type_size() we currently return -1 if the value at the type_ptr isn't one of the TYPE_* values we understand. However, this should never happen, and if it does then the calling code will go confusingly wrong because none of the callsites try to handle an error return. Switch to an assertion instead, so that if this does somehow happen we'll have a nice clear backtrace of what happened rather than a weird crash or misbehaviour. This also silences various Coverity complaints about not handling the negative return value (CID 1005735, 1005736, 1005738, 1390582).
