// MallocedBlockCache implements a lightweight wrapper around js_malloc/js_free.
//
// Blocks are requested by ::alloc and must be returned with ::free, at which
// point the cache may decide to hold on to the block rather than hand it back
// to js_free. Subsequent ::alloc calls may be satisfied from the cached
// blocks rather than calling js_malloc. The mechanism is designed to be much
// cheaper than calling js_malloc/js_free directly. One consequence is that
// there is no locking; it is essential therefore to use each cache only from
// a single thread.
//
// The intended use is for lightweight management of OOL (malloc'd) storage
// associated with WasmStructObject and WasmArrayObject. The mechanism is
// general and potentially has other uses. Blocks of size STEP * NUM_LISTS
// and larger are never cached, though.
//
// Request sizes are rounded up to a multiple of STEP. There are NUM_LISTS-1
// free lists, with a "List ID" indicating the multiple of STEP stored on the
// list. So for example, blocks of size 3 * STEP (after rounding up) are
// stored on the list with ID 3. List ID 0 indicates blocks which are too
// large to live on any freelist. With the default settings, this gives
// separate freelists for blocks of size 16, 32, 48, .. 496. Blocks of size
// zero are not supported, and `lists[0]` will always be empty.
//
// Allocation of a block produces not only the block's address but also its
// List ID. When freeing, both values must be presented, because there is
// otherwise no way for ::free to know the size of the original allocation,
// and hence which freelist it should go on. For this reason, the ::alloc and
// ::free methods produce and take a `PointerAndUint7`, not a `void*`.
//
// Resizing of blocks is not supported.
