5389146191 Remove the opt.lg_prof_bt_max option.
Remove opt.lg_prof_bt_max, and hard code it to 7.  The original
intention of this option was to enable faster backtracing by limiting
backtrace depth.  However, this makes graphical pprof output very
difficult to interpret.  In practice, decreasing sampling frequency is a
better mechanism for limiting profiling overhead.

0b526ff94d Remove the opt.lg_prof_tcmax option.
Remove the opt.lg_prof_tcmax option and hard-code a cache size of 1024.
This setting is something that users just shouldn't have to worry about.
If lock contention actually ends up being a problem, the simple solution
available to the user is to reduce sampling frequency.

ef8897b4b9 Make 8-byte tiny size class non-optional.
When tiny size class support was first added, it was intended to support
truly tiny size classes (even 2 bytes).  However, this wasn't very
useful in practice, so the minimum tiny size class has been limited to
sizeof(void *) for a long time now.  This is too small to be standards
compliant, but other commonly used malloc implementations do not even
bother using a 16-byte quantum  on systems with vector units (SSE2+,
AltiVEC, etc.).  As such, it is safe in practice to support an 8-byte
tiny size class on 64-bit systems that support 16-byte types.

4162627757 Remove the swap feature.
Remove the swap feature, which enabled per application swap files.  In
practice this feature has not proven itself useful to users.

745e30b157 Document swap.fds mallctl as read-write.
Fix the manual page to document the swap.fds mallctl as read-write,
rather than read-only.
