David Goldblatt 60993697d8 Prof: Add prof_unbias.
This gives more accurate attribution of bytes and counts to stack traces,
without introducing backwards incompatibilities in heap-profile parsing tools.
We track the ideal reported (to the end user) number of bytes more carefully
inside core jemalloc.  When dumping heap profiles, insteading of outputting our
counts directly, we output counts that will cause parsing tools to give a result
close to the value we want.

We retain the old version as an opt setting, to let users who are tracking
values on a per-component basis to keep their metrics stable until they decide
to switch.

jemalloc is a general purpose malloc(3) implementation that emphasizes
fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency support.  jemalloc first came
into use as the FreeBSD libc allocator in 2005, and since then it has found its
way into numerous applications that rely on its predictable behavior.  In 2010
jemalloc development efforts broadened to include developer support features
such as heap profiling and extensive monitoring/tuning hooks.  Modern jemalloc
releases continue to be integrated back into FreeBSD, and therefore versatility
remains critical.  Ongoing development efforts trend toward making jemalloc
among the best allocators for a broad range of demanding applications, and
eliminating/mitigating weaknesses that have practical repercussions for real
world applications.

The COPYING file contains copyright and licensing information.

The INSTALL file contains information on how to configure, build, and install
jemalloc.
