Log:
MFC: Merge malloc(3) improvements and fixes. The highlights are:
* Avoid re-zeroing memory in calloc() when possible.
* Use pthread mutexes where possible instead of libc "spinlocks", and
actually spin some during contention before blocking.
* Implement dynamic load balancing of thread-->arena mapping.
* Avoid floating point math in order to avoid increased context switch
overhead for applications that otherwise would not use floating point
math.
* Restructure how sbrk() and mmap() are used to acquire memory mappings.
This provides a way to force malloc to only use sbrk(), which can be
useful in the context of resource limits.
* Reduce the number of mmap() calls typically necessary when allocating
a chunk.
* Track dirty unused pages so that they can be purged if they exceed a
threshold.
* Try to realloc() large objects in place.
* Manage page runs with trees instead of chunk maps, which allows
logarithmic-time run allocation.
