allocators

• questions
  • realloc/grow/shrink?
  • should handles always be smart pointers?
• require drop impl on handles
• handling frees when coercepointee only allows one field (transparent)
  • how does alloc::boxed::Box handle storing its allocator?
    • it doesn't. it's a lang item, so it ignores the rule
    • but it doesn't support dyn dispatch on custom allocators
  • solved by FreeVtable unfortunately and hopefully temporarily
  • still need to figure out implementing dyn dispatch for non pointer sized types
• create and test implementations of all allocator types
  • page allocator
  • c allocator
  • arena dst allocator (allocates and frees all memory in one action each)
  • dst allocator to item allocator wrapper
• document all exposed functions and types
  • important
• document unsafety
