96773a2daf Add BionicAllocator::memalign
Bionic needs this functionality to allocate a TLS segment with greater
than 16-byte alignment. For simplicity, this allocator only supports up
to one page of alignment.

The memory layout changes slightly when allocating an object of exactly
PAGE_SIZE alignment. Instead of allocating the page_info header at the
start of the page containing the pointer, it is allocated at the start
of the preceding page.

083d850b30 Move the linker allocator into libc
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.
