For a 32-bit userspace, `struct LinkedListEntry` takes 8 bytes for
storing the two pointers, a default block allocator size alignment of
16-bytes would waste 50% of memory. By changing the alignment to size
of a pointer, it saves >1MB memory postboot on wembley device.

This is the second attempt to purge linker block allocators. Unlike the
previously reverted change which purge allocators whenever all objects
are freed, we only purge right before control leaves the linker. This
limits the performance impact to one munmap() call per dlopen(), in
most cases.

Rename LinkerMemoryAllocator -> BionicAllocator
Rename LinkerSmallObjectAllocator -> BionicSmallObjectAllocator
libc and the linker need to share an instance of the allocator for
allocating and freeing dynamic ELF TLS memory (DTVs and segments). The
linker also continues to use this allocator.

If all allocated memory from a block allocator is freed, it is a good
opportunity to purge all the pages allocated to reduce lingering dirty
pages.
Memory saving varies with the platform and what processes are running.
Measuring right after boot, this saves ~1.8MB on cuttelfish and ~1.3MB
on a 32-bit ARM device.

Use <android-base/macros.h> instead where possible, and move the bionic
macros out of the way of the libbase ones. Yes, there are folks who manage
to end up with both included at once (thanks OpenGL!), and cleaning that
up doesn't seem nearly as practical as just making this change.

Historically we had part of the linker licensed under BSD and
another part under Apache 2 license. This commit makes all the
linker code licensed under BSD license.

Add basic general purpose memory allocator to
linker in order to enable usage of other libraries
like libziparchive.
