4581b97809 Implement metadata statistics.
There are three categories of metadata:

- Base allocations are used for bootstrap-sensitive internal allocator
  data structures.
- Arena chunk headers comprise pages which track the states of the
  non-metadata pages.
- Internal allocations differ from application-originated allocations
  in that they are for internal use, and that they are omitted from heap
  profiles.

The metadata statistics comprise the metadata categories as follows:

- stats.metadata: All metadata -- base + arena chunk headers + internal
  allocations.
- stats.arenas.<i>.metadata.mapped: Arena chunk headers.
- stats.arenas.<i>.metadata.allocated: Internal allocations.  This is
  reported separately from the other metadata statistics because it
  overlaps with the allocated and active statistics, whereas the other
  metadata statistics do not.

Base allocations are not reported separately, though their magnitude can
be computed by subtracting the arena-specific metadata.

This resolves #163.

e2deab7a75 Refactor huge allocation to be managed by arenas.
Refactor huge allocation to be managed by arenas (though the global
red-black tree of huge allocations remains for lookup during
deallocation).  This is the logical conclusion of recent changes that 1)
made per arena dss precedence apply to huge allocation, and 2) made it
possible to replace the per arena chunk allocation/deallocation
functions.

Remove the top level huge stats, and replace them with per arena huge
stats.

Normalize function names and types to *dalloc* (some were *dealloc*).

Remove the --enable-mremap option.  As jemalloc currently operates, this
is a performace regression for some applications, but planned work to
logarithmically space huge size classes should provide similar amortized
performance.  The motivation for this change was that mremap-based huge
reallocation forced leaky abstractions that prevented refactoring.

41b6afb834 Port to FreeBSD.
Use FreeBSD-specific functions (_pthread_mutex_init_calloc_cb(),
_malloc_{pre,post}fork()) to avoid bootstrapping issues due to
allocation in libc and libthr.

Add malloc_strtoumax() and use it instead of strtoul().  Disable
validation code in malloc_vsnprintf() and malloc_strtoumax() until
jemalloc is initialized.  This is necessary because locale
initialization causes allocation for both vsnprintf() and strtoumax().

Force the lazy-lock feature on in order to avoid pthread_self(),
because it causes allocation.

Use syscall(SYS_write, ...) rather than write(...), because libthr wraps
write() and causes allocation.  Without this workaround, it would not be
possible to print error messages in malloc_conf_init() without
substantially reworking bootstrapping.

Fix choose_arena_hard() to look at how many threads are assigned to the
candidate choice, rather than checking whether the arena is
uninitialized.  This bug potentially caused more arenas to be
initialized than necessary.

4e2e3dd9cf Fix fork-related bugs.
Acquire/release arena bin locks as part of the prefork/postfork.  This
bug made deadlock in the child between fork and exec a possibility.

Split jemalloc_postfork() into jemalloc_postfork_{parent,child}() so
that the child can reinitialize mutexes rather than unlocking them.  In
practice, this bug tended not to cause problems.
