Elliott Hughes 0a94e1584e Explicitly document overcommit and adb shell's use of oom_score_adj.
This comes up now and then, and the different behavior with `adb shell`
in particular confuses people.

Bug: https://github.com/android/ndk/issues/1897
Test: N/A

*
* Note that Android (like most Unix systems) allows "overcommit". This
* allows processes to allocate more memory than the system has, provided
* they don't use it all. This works because only "dirty" pages that have
* been written to actually require physical memory. In practice, this
* means that it's rare to see memory allocation functions return a null
* pointer, and that a non-null pointer does not mean that you actually
* have all of the memory you asked for.
*
* Note also that the Linux Out Of Memory (OOM) killer behaves differently
* for code run via `adb shell`. The assumption is that if you ran
* something via `adb shell` you're a developer who actually wants the
* device to do what you're asking it to do _even if_ that means killing
* other processes. Obviously this is not the case for apps, which will
* be killed in preference to killing other processes.
