Here follows my summary of what's been discovered so far.

It seems that during struct legalization we create a new struct that inherits the 'size and alignment decoration', which is supposed to imply that the struct fields have got offsets calculated and added.
However, the new struct is created in such a way that the offsets did not get added, and so we crash during WGSL emission.

The fix will be to make sure we copy over the offsets for the fields that survive legalization.
(The legalization just removes fields that don't have any bearing on memory layout, so the offsets should still be valid.)

Transfer offset decorations when legalizing laid-out structs
c8b88c3 
Struct legalization removing fields not representable in memory should transfer offset
decorations in case the struct has already had offsets calculated.

Closes shader-slang#5264.
