tiny Zig allocator primarily targeting WebAssembly
Buddy allocation is generally pretty efficient but suffers from internal fragmentation. Can slab allocation have similar code efficiency? 
Now that we have a built-in page-based allocator in std, we should start consuming it. Benefits: - standardize around std — properly coordinate with any wasm allocator - really freeing...
Current design is reasonably simple and compact, but we have two major issues: 1. Alignment is fixed at double-usize (8 bytes). It'd be nice if we can at least align...
_Alternative to https://github.com/fengb/zee_alloc/issues/3_ All payloads have natural alignment of 8. If we pad the payload by 8, we can get align 16. This sounds simpler than shifting _every_ block, but...

Once we have https://github.com/fengb/zee_alloc/issues/3, we have a really nice characteristic: - Small allocations are always `align(16)`. The extra bits can denote the small size bitshift... which incidentally is less than...
