Summary:
This is mostly some cleanup and shouldn't affect functionalities.
Reviewing some code for a future addition, I realized that the complexity of
the initialization path was unnecessary, and so was maintaining a structure
for the allocator options throughout the initialization.
So we get rid of that structure, of an extraneous level of nesting for the
`init` function, and correct a couple of related code inaccuracies in the
flags cpp.

Summary:
First, some context.
The main feedback we get about the quarantine is that it's too memory hungry.
A single MB of quarantine will have an impact of 3 to 4MB of PSS/RSS, and
things quickly get out of hand in terms of memory usage, and the quarantine
ends up disabled.
The main objective of the quarantine is to protect from use-after-free
exploitation by making it harder for an attacker to reallocate a controlled
chunk in place of the targeted freed chunk. This is achieved by not making it
available to the backend right away for reuse, but holding it a little while.
Historically, what has usually been the target of such attacks was objects,
where vtable pointers or other function pointers could constitute a valuable
targeti to replace. Those are usually on the smaller side. There is barely any
advantage in putting the quarantine several megabytes of RGB data or the like.
Now for the patch.
This patch introduces a new way the Quarantine behaves in Scudo. First of all,
the size of the Quarantine will be defined in KB instead of MB, then we
introduce a new option: the size up to which (lower than or equal to) a chunk
will be quarantined. This way, we only quarantine smaller chunks, and the size
of the quarantine remains manageable. It also prevents someone from triggering
a recycle by allocating something huge. We default to 512 bytes on 32-bit and
2048 bytes on 64-bit platforms.
In details, the patches includes the following:
- introduce `QuarantineSizeKb`, but honor `QuarantineSizeMb` if set to fall
back to the old behavior (meaning no threshold in that case);
`QuarantineSizeMb` is described as deprecated in the options descriptios;
documentation update will follow;
- introduce `QuarantineChunksUpToSize`, the new threshold value;
- update the `quarantine.cpp` test, and other tests using `QuarantineSizeMb`;
- remove `AllocatorOptions::copyTo`, it wasn't used;
- slightly change the logic around `quarantineOrDeallocateChunk` to accomodate
for the new logic; rename a couple of variables there as well;
Rewriting the tests, I found a somewhat annoying bug where non-default aligned
chunks would account for more than needed when placed in the quarantine due to
`<< MinAlignment` instead of `<< MinAlignmentLog`. This is fixed and tested for
now.

Summary:
After discussing the current defaults with a couple of parties, the consensus
is that they are too high. 1Mb of quarantine has about a 4Mb impact on PSS, so
memory usage goes up quickly.
This is obviously configurable, but the default value should be more
"approachable", so both the global size and the thread local size are 1/4 of
what they used to be.

Summary:
The local and global quarantine sizes were not offering a distinction for
32-bit and 64-bit platforms. This is addressed with lower values for 32-bit.
When writing additional tests for the quarantine, it was discovered that when
calling some of the allocator interface function prior to any allocation
operation having occured, the test would crash due to the allocator not being
initialized. This was addressed by making sure the allocator is initialized
for those scenarios.
Relevant tests were added in interface.cpp and quarantine.cpp.
Last change being the removal of the extraneous link dependencies for the
tests thanks to rL293220, anf the addition of the gc-sections linker flag.

Summary:
This update introduces i386 support for the Scudo Hardened Allocator, and
offers software alternatives for functions that used to require hardware
specific instruction sets. This should make porting to new architectures
easier.
Among the changes:
- The chunk header has been changed to accomodate the size limitations
encountered on 32-bit architectures. We now fit everything in 64-bit. This
was achieved by storing the amount of unused bytes in an allocation rather
than the size itself, as one can be deduced from the other with the help
of the GetActuallyAllocatedSize function. As it turns out, this header can
be used for both 64 and 32 bit, and as such we dropped the requirement for
the 128-bit compare and exchange instruction support (cmpxchg16b).
- Add 32-bit support for the checksum and the PRNG functions: if the SSE 4.2
instruction set is supported, use the 32-bit CRC32 instruction, and in the
XorShift128, use a 32-bit based state instead of 64-bit.
- Add software support for CRC32: if SSE 4.2 is not supported, fallback on a
software implementation.
- Modify tests that were not 32-bit compliant, and expand them to cover more
allocation and alignment sizes. The random shuffle test has been deactivated
for linux-i386 & linux-i686 as the 32-bit sanitizer allocator doesn't
currently randomize chunks.

Summary:
Currently, the Scudo Hardened Allocator only gets its flags via the SCUDO_OPTIONS environment variable.
With this patch, we offer the opportunity for programs to define their own options via __scudo_default_options() which behaves like __asan_default_options() (weak symbol).
A relevant test has been added as well, and the documentation updated accordingly.
I also used this patch as an opportunity to rename a few variables to comply with the LLVM naming scheme, and replaced a use of Report with dieWithMessage for consistency (and to avoid a callback).

Summary:
This is an initial implementation of a Hardened Allocator based on Sanitizer Common's CombinedAllocator.
It aims at mitigating heap based vulnerabilities by adding several features to the base allocator, while staying relatively fast.
The following were implemented:
- additional consistency checks on the allocation function parameters and on the heap chunks;
- use of checksum protected chunk header, to detect corruption;
- randomness to the allocator base;
- delayed freelist (quarantine), to mitigate use after free and overall determinism.
Additional mitigations are in the works.
