Use union to access access size sensitive registers
As described in RM0433 section 49.4.13 "Data packing", STM32H7's SPI data register supports data packing and it is sensitive to actual access width.
The original code used pointer casting to obtain a code to access the register in a desired size.
However, these operation results in strict aliasing warnings (deferencing punned pointer) and are not desirable.
Here, we declare a union that allow access to a 32-bit register in 8, 16 or 32-bit width and cast pointer to the original RXDR and TXDR data registers and then access the portion of the register through an appropriate union member.
XXX FIXME Only handled 16-bit access case, as 32-bit (original declaration) and 8-bit (allowed) cases do not generate warnings, but these should be handled similarly for correctness and consistency of the code.
