Summary:
The secondary allocator is slow, because we map and unmap each block
on allocation and deallocation.
While I really like the security benefits of such a behavior, this
yields very disappointing performance numbers on Android for larger
allocation benchmarks.
So this change adds a free list to the secondary, that will hold
recently deallocated chunks, and (currently) release the extraneous
memory. This allows to save on some memory mapping operations on
allocation and deallocation. I do not think that this lowers the
security of the secondary, but can increase the memory footprint a
little bit (RSS & VA).
The maximum number of blocks the free list can hold is templatable,
`0U` meaning that we fallback to the old behavior. The higher that
number, the higher the extra memory footprint.
I added default configurations for all our platforms, but they are
likely to change in the near future based on needs and feedback.

Summary:
This changes a few things to improve memory footprint and performances
on Android, and fixes a test compilation error:
- add `stdlib.h` to `wrappers_c_test.cc` to address
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42810
- change Android size class maps, based on benchmarks, to improve
performances and lower the Svelte memory footprint. Also change the
32-bit region size for said configuration
- change the `reallocate` logic to reallocate in place for sizes larger
than the original chunk size, when they still fit in the same block.
This addresses patterns from `memory_replay` dumps like the following:
```

```
In this situation we were deallocating the old chunk, and
allocating a new one for every single one of those, but now we can
keep the same chunk (we just updated the header), which saves some
heap operations.

Summary:
The Combined allocator hold together all the other components, and
provides a memory allocator interface based on various template
parameters. This will be in turn used by "wrappers" that will provide
the standard C and C++ memory allocation functions, but can be
used as is as well.
This doesn't depart significantly from the current Scudo implementation
except for a few details:
- Quarantine batches are now protected by a header a well;
- an Allocator instance has its own TSD registry, as opposed to a
static one for everybody;
- a function to iterate over busy chunks has been added, for Android
purposes;
This also adds the associated tests, and a few default configurations
for several platforms, that will likely be further tuned later on.
