Explicitly define three setters:
- `prof_tctx_reset()`: set `prof_tctx` to `1U`, if we don't know in
advance whether the allocation is large or not;
- `prof_tctx_reset_sampled()`: set `prof_tctx` to `1U`, if we already
know in advance that the allocation is large;
- `prof_info_set()`: set a real `prof_tctx`, and also set other
profiling info e.g. the allocation time.
Code structure wise, the prof level is kept as a thin wrapper, the
large level only provides low level setter APIs, and the arena level
carries out the main logic.
Develop new data structure and code logic for holding profiling
related information stored in the extent that may be needed after the
extent is released, which in particular is the case for the
reallocation code path (e.g. in `rallocx()` and `xallocx()`). The
data structure is a generalization of `prof_tctx_t`: we previously
only copy out the `prof_tctx` before the extent is released, but we
may be in need of additional fields. Currently the only additional
field is the allocation time field, but there may be more fields in
the future.
The restructuring also resolved a bug: `prof_realloc()` mistakenly
passed the new `ptr` to `prof_free_sampled_object()`, but passing in
the `old_ptr` would crash because it's already been released. Now
the essential profiling information is collectively copied out early
and safely passed to `prof_free_sampled_object()` after the extent is
released.
Makes the prof sample prng use the tsd prng_state. This allows us to properly
initialize the sample interval event, without having to create tdata. As a
result, tdata will be created on demand (when a thread reaches the sample
interval bytes allocated), instead of on the first allocation.
This change suppresses tdata initialization and prof sample threshold
update in interrupting malloc calls. Interrupting calls have no need
for tdata. Delaying tdata creation aligns better with our lazy tdata
creation principle, and it also helps us gain control back from
interrupting calls more quickly and reduces any risk of delegating
tdata creation to an interrupting call.
Refactored core profiling codebase into two logical parts:
(a) `prof_data.c`: core internal data structure managing & dumping;
(b) `prof.c`: mutexes & outward-facing APIs.
Some internal functions had to be exposed out, but there are not
that many of them if the modularization is (hopefully) clean enough.
Prof logging is conceptually seperate from core profiling, so
split it out as a module of its own. There are a few internal
functions that had to be exposed but I think it is a fair trade-off.

`prof.c` is growing too long, so trying to modularize it. There are
a few internal functions that had to be exposed but I think it is a
fair trade-off.
The original logic can be disastrous if `PROF_DUMP_BUFSIZE` is less
than `slen` -- `prof_dump_buf_end + slen <= PROF_DUMP_BUFSIZE` would
always be `false`, so `memcpy` would always try to copy
`PROF_DUMP_BUFSIZE - prof_dump_buf_end` chars, which can be
dangerous: in the last round of the `while` loop it would not only
illegally read the memory beyond `s` (which might not always be
disastrous), but it would also illegally overwrite the memory beyond
`prof_dump_buf` (which can be pretty disastrous). `slen` probably
has never gone beyond `PROF_DUMP_BUFSIZE` so we were just lucky.

Subtraction is unconditional, and only flags are checked for the jump,
no extra compare is necessary. This also reduces register pressure.
"Hooks" is really the best name for the module that will contain the publicly
exposed hooks. So lets rename the current "hooks" module (that hook external
dependencies, for reentrancy testing) to "test_hooks".
Older Linux systems don't have O_CLOEXEC. If that's the case, we fcntl
immediately after open, to minimize the length of the racy period in
which an
operation in another thread can leak a file descriptor to a child.
