Summary:
C++ Faiss is compiled with (at least) 3 compilers:
Sometimes the compilers are misconfigured and have different ideas of data alignment, size and packing. This is a hard to catch bug.
This test attemtps to check if one of these differences occur.
The test did catch the bug in one configuration in the Github version, see
#4136
