Introduce an M_SET_ALLOCATION_LIMIT enumerator for android_mallopt(),
which can be used to set an upper bound on the total size of all
allocations made using the memory allocation APIs.
This is useful for programs such as audioextractor and mediaserver
which need to set such a limit as a security mitigation. Currently
these programs are using setrlimit(RLIMIT_AS) which isn't exactly
what these programs want to control. RLIMIT_AS is also problematic
under sanitizers which allocate large amounts of address space as
shadow memory, and is especially problematic under shadow call stack,
which requires 16MB of address space per thread.
Add new unit tests for bionic.
Add new unit tests for malloc debug that verify that when the limit
is enabled, malloc debug still functions for nearly every allocation
function.
Bug: 118642754
Test: Ran bionic-unit-tests/bionic-unit-tests-static.
Test: Ran malloc debug tests and perfetto integration tests.

All of the heapprofd code assumes that it's the only hook that
has been enabled. Enforce that by disallowing heapprofd from
enabling if malloc debug or malloc hooks have been enabled.
Test: Ran all unit tests (bionic/malloc hooks/malloc debug/perfetto).
Test: Enabled malloc debug ran perfetto integration tests and verified
Test: that an error message goes to the log.

The pieces:
- The malloc common shared by static and dynamic code (malloc_common.cpp).
- The code for shared libraries that includes any dlopen'ing
(malloc_common_dynamic.cpp).
- The implementation of perfetto's heapprofd (malloc_heapprofd.cpp).
This makes it easier to see what's going on in the many different areas.
It should also make it easier to add the allocation capping option.
Other related changes:
- Update the unit tests for android_mallopt. All of the current options
don't work on static binaries, so make sure that is reflected in the test.
- A few names changes to make sure that all code is consistent.
Test: Ran tests (malloc hooks/malloc debug/perfetto/bionic unit tests).
