@return [StructLayout] @overload layout

@return [StructLayout]
Get struct layout.

@overload layout(*spec)

@param [Array<Symbol, Integer>,Array(Hash)] spec
@return [StructLayout]
Create struct layout from +spec+.
@example Creating a layout from an array +spec+
  class MyStruct < Struct
    layout :field1, :int,
           :field2, :pointer,
           :field3, :string
  end
@example Creating a layout from an array +spec+ with offset
  class MyStructWithOffset < Struct
    layout :field1, :int,
           :field2, :pointer, 6,  # set offset to 6 for this field
           :field3, :string
  end
@example Creating a layout from a hash +spec+
  class MyStructFromHash < Struct
    layout :field1 => :int,
           :field2 => :pointer,
           :field3 => :string
  end
@example Creating a layout with pointers to functions
  class MyFunctionTable < Struct
    layout :function1, callback([:int, :int], :int),
           :function2, callback([:pointer], :void),
           :field3, :string
