Summary:
This update introduces i386 support for the Scudo Hardened Allocator, and
offers software alternatives for functions that used to require hardware
specific instruction sets. This should make porting to new architectures
easier.
Among the changes:
- The chunk header has been changed to accomodate the size limitations
encountered on 32-bit architectures. We now fit everything in 64-bit. This
was achieved by storing the amount of unused bytes in an allocation rather
than the size itself, as one can be deduced from the other with the help
of the GetActuallyAllocatedSize function. As it turns out, this header can
be used for both 64 and 32 bit, and as such we dropped the requirement for
the 128-bit compare and exchange instruction support (cmpxchg16b).
- Add 32-bit support for the checksum and the PRNG functions: if the SSE 4.2
instruction set is supported, use the 32-bit CRC32 instruction, and in the
XorShift128, use a 32-bit based state instead of 64-bit.
- Add software support for CRC32: if SSE 4.2 is not supported, fallback on a
software implementation.
- Modify tests that were not 32-bit compliant, and expand them to cover more
allocation and alignment sizes. The random shuffle test has been deactivated
for linux-i386 & linux-i686 as the 32-bit sanitizer allocator doesn't
currently randomize chunks.

Summary:
In order to avoid starting a separate thread to return unused memory to
the system (the thread interferes with process startup on Android,
Zygota waits for all threads to exit before fork, but this thread never
exits), try to return it right after free.

Summary:
In order to support 32-bit platforms, we have to make some adjustments in
multiple locations, one of them being the Scudo chunk header. For it to fit on
64 bits (as a reminder, on x64 it's 128 bits), I had to crunch the space taken
by some of the fields. In order to keep the offset field small, the secondary
allocator was changed to accomodate aligned allocations for larger alignments,
hence making the offset constant for chunks serviced by it.
The resulting header candidate has been added, and further modifications to
allow 32-bit support will follow.
Another notable change is the addition of MaybeStartBackgroudThread() to allow
release of the memory to the OS.

Summary:
This is an initial implementation of a Hardened Allocator based on Sanitizer Common's CombinedAllocator.
It aims at mitigating heap based vulnerabilities by adding several features to the base allocator, while staying relatively fast.
The following were implemented:
- additional consistency checks on the allocation function parameters and on the heap chunks;
- use of checksum protected chunk header, to detect corruption;
- randomness to the allocator base;
- delayed freelist (quarantine), to mitigate use after free and overall determinism.
Additional mitigations are in the works.
