I don't think these belong in std, at least not in their current form.
If someone wants to add these back I'd like to review the patch before
it lands.

This one changes the size of an allocation, allowing it to be relocated.
However, the implementation will still return `null` if it would be
equivalent to
new = alloc
memcpy(new, old)
free(old)
Mainly this prepares for taking advantage of `mremap` which I thought
would be a bigger deal but apparently is only available on Linux. Still,
we should use it on Linux.
no longer causes compilation failure.
This also addresses the problem of high map count causing OOM by
choosing a page size of 2MiB for most targets when the page_size_max is
smaller than this number.
This allocator now supports alignments greater than page size, with the
same implementation as it used before.
This is a partial revert of ceb0a632cfd6a4eada6bd27bf6a3754e95dcac86.
It looks like VirtualAlloc2 has better solutions to this problem,
including features such as MEM_RESERVE_PLACEHOLDER and MEM_LARGE_PAGES.
This possibility can be investigated as a follow-up task.
This keeps the implementation matching master branch, however,
introduces a compile error that applications can work around by
explicitly setting page_size_max and page_size_min to match their
computer's settings, in the case that those values are not already
equal.
I plan to rework this allocator in a follow-up enhancement with the goal
of reducing total active memory mappings.
* fix merge conflicts
* rename the declarations
* reword documentation
* extract FixedBufferAllocator to separate file
* take advantage of locals
* remove the assertion about max alignment in Allocator API, leaving it
Allocator implementation defined
* fix non-inline function call in start logic
The GeneralPurposeAllocator implementation is totally broken because it
uses global state but I didn't address that in this commit.
heap.zig: define new default page sizes
heap.zig: add min/max_page_size and their options
lib/std/c: add miscellaneous declarations
heap.zig: add pageSize() and its options
switch to new page sizes, especially in GPA/stdlib
mem.zig: remove page_size
The spec is ambiguous, and it's too late to change it.
So the most reasonable thing to do in order to avoid generating
strings that could be parsed differently by other implementations
is to forbid parameters named "v" at compile-time.

Unfortunately, I can't easily add a test for this, because the repro
depends on some details of DWARF layout; but I've confirmed that it
fixes a bug repro on another branch.
Clearing the analysis roots was very clever and all, but not actually
valid. We need to avoid *any* reference to the analysis errors if there
were any fatal files, and that includes sorting the errors!

Sometimes we emit runtime instructions in comptime scopes. These
instructions will be discarded, but they allow comptime blocks to
contain intermediate runtime-known values, which is necessary for
expressions like `runtime_array.len` to work.
Since we will always throw away these runtime instructions, including
safety checks is a time waste at best and trips an assertion at worst!
