@jpeach,
I can't speak to the relative ugliness of the code. It's fairly C-ish like
the rest of our memory related code.
I don't think the current implementation of ats_malloc tracks any size.
I thought malloc had no specific guarantees on alignment, but usually
provides 8 byte alignment? Perhaps @bryancall can move the extra byes to the
end?
Can you use `malloc_usable_size` on a specific category of memory
allocation? Being able to pass in the counter here allows you to strictly
control which allocations are being tracked.
