Ideally, we'd be reusing some Mutex class we have in Gecko, the base one
in mozglue/misc being the best candidate. However, the contraints in
mozjemalloc make that unconvenient:
- Can't have a constructor because malloc_init() would likely run before
it, and that would mean the mutexes would be re-initialized.
- Can't have a destructor because code will run after static
destructors, and some of that code likely will invoke the allocator,
and we can't have destructed mutexes by then.
- Can't use pthread_mutex on OSX because that loops back into the
allocator.
Accomodating the use of Gecko mutexes around those constraints would
mean much more code than just implementing a new mutex class, so the
latter is preferred.

All the parameters of the radix tree (bits per level, height) are
derived from the aBits argument to ::Create in a straightforward way.
aBits itself is a constant at the call point, making them all constants,
so we can turn all of them as constants at compile time instead of
storing as data.

All levels except the first are using the same size, and in some cases,
even the first uses the same size. Only storing those two different
sizes allows to fix the class size, while not making the code
significantly more complex.

The tree height was defined as:
height = aBits / bits_per_level;
if (height * bits_per_level != aBits) {
height++;
}
What's wanted here is a height that covers all the bits, where the first
level might cover less than bits_per_level.
So aBits / bits_per_level gets us the height covered by levels with
exactly bits_per_level bits. The tree height is one more when there
are remaining bits.
Put differently, we can write aBits as:
aBits = bits_per_level * x + y
with y < bits_per_level.
We have:
aBits / bits_per_level = x.
height = x when y = 0, and x + 1 when y > 0.
We're looking for a number z such that
height = (aBits + z) / bits_per_level.
Or:
height = (bits_per_level * x + y + z) / bits_per_level.
= x + (y + z) / bits_per_level.
So we're looking for a z such that
(y + z) / bits_per_level = 0 when y = 0
= 1 when y > 0
The properties of the integer division are such that the above means:
0 <= y + z < bits_per_level when y = 0
bits_per_level <= y + z < 2 * bits_per_level when y > 0
Which gives us:
0 <= z < bits_per_level
bits_per_level - y <= z < 2 * bits_per_level - y when y > 0
y being < bit_per_level per the constraint further above,
2 * bits_per_level - y > bits_per_level.
So all in all, we want a z such that
bits_per_level - y <= z < bits_per_level with 0 < y < bits_per_level
The largest value where this is true is z = bits_per_level - 1.
In summary,
height = (aBits + bits_per_level - 1) / bits_per_level
is the same as the height as originally defined.
With that formula, it's self evident that height * bits_per_level is
always >= aBits, so we remove the assertion.

bits_per_level was defined as:
ffs(pow2_ceil((kNodeSize / sizeof(void*)))) - 1
kNodeSize is (1U << 14) when SIZEOF_PTR is 4 (sizeof(void*) being the
same). Otherwise, it's CACHELINE, which is (1U << 6).
The most important part, though, is that it's always a power of 2.
And it's divided by sizeof(void*) which is always a power or 2.
The result of that division is thus always a power of 2, as long as
kNodeSize is larger than the size of a pointer, which it is.
The argument to pow2_ceil being a power of 2, pow2_ceil is a noop,
so it can go away. And the argument to ffs being a power of 2, it
returns one more than n that matches 1 << n == value. So overall
the expression returns the number of shifts for
kNodeSize / SIZEOF_PTR.
Transforming kNodeSize to a number of shifts/power of 2, the expression
can then be simplified as kNodeSize2Pow - SIZEOF_PTR_2POW.

There is a lot of redundancy between malloc_rtree_get and
malloc_rtree_set. Essentially, they both look up a slot, and either get
a value or set a value in that slot. malloc_rtree_get doesn't create a
tree path for the slot when it doesn't exist. And the
MALLOC_RTREE_GET_GENERATE macro machinery makes malloc_rtree_get retry
with a lock and validate both results agree in debug builds.
By introducing a malloc_rtree_get_slot function that returns a slot,
optionally creating a tree path to it, we remove the redundancy between
_get and _set, and we can avoid the macro machinery as well.

Bug 571209 made many different kinds of sizes static at build time, as
opposed to configurable at run-time. While the dynamic sizes can be
useful to quickly test tweaks to e.g. quantum sizes, a
replace-malloc-built allocator could just as well do the same. This
need, however, is very rare, and doesn't justify keeping the sizes
dynamic on platforms where static sizes can't be used for the page size
because page size may vary depending on kernel options.
So we make every size that doesn't depend on the page size static,
whether MALLOC_STATIC_SIZES is enabled or not.
This makes no practical difference on tier-1 platforms, except Android
aarch64, which will benefit from more static sizes.

This was done in bug 1104634 because back then the Android NDK had a
broken combination of compiler and libc, where the compiler would emit
calls to the ffs function, but the libc wouldn't contain them, but only
when building without optimization.
Things have changed in the meanwhile, and recent NDK doesn't have this
problem. So we can remove the hack.

Bug 1402174 made all arenas registered in a Red-Black tree. Which means
they are iterable through that tree, making the arenas list now redundant.
The list is also inconvenient, since it needs to be constantly
reallocated, and the allocator in charge of the list doesn't know how to
free things.
Iteration of arenas is not on any hot path anyways, so even though
iterating the RB tree is slower, it doesn't matter.
So we remove the arenas list, and keep a direct pointer to the main
arena for convenience (instead of calling First() on the RB tree every
time)

The trivial expansion of macros ended up creating cases like
expr.IsRed() ? NodeColor::Red : NodeColor::Black
which practically speaking, is the same as
expr.Color()
so we replace those.
There are also a bunch of expr.IsRed() == false, which are replaced with
expr.IsBlack() (adding that method at the same time)

While we're going in the opposite direction, moving away from macros,
upcoming intermediate steps are going to "manually" expand macros, but
later steps will require changing how the link field reference is done,
