/*
* Allocation policies are used to implement the standard allocation behaviors
* in a customizable way. Additionally, custom behaviors may be added to these
* behaviors, such as additionally reporting an error through an out-of-band
* mechanism when OOM occurs. The concept modeled here is as follows:
*
* - public copy constructor, assignment, destructor
* - void* malloc_(size_t)
* Responsible for OOM reporting when null is returned.
* - void* calloc_(size_t)
* Responsible for OOM reporting when null is returned.
* - void* realloc_(void*, size_t, size_t)
* Responsible for OOM reporting when null is returned. The *used* bytes
* of the previous buffer is passed in (rather than the old allocation
* size), in addition to the *new* allocation size requested.
* - void free_(void*)
* - void reportAllocOverflow() const
* Called on allocation overflow (that is, an allocation implicitly tried
* to allocate more than the available memory space -- think allocating an
* array of large-size objects, where N * size overflows) before null is
* returned.
*
* mfbt provides (and typically uses by default) only MallocAllocPolicy, which
* does nothing more than delegate to the malloc/alloc/free functions.

/*
* A policy that straightforwardly uses malloc/calloc/realloc/free and adds no
