Revert 77941 - Add redundancy to detect double frees in TCMalloc
I'll land and revert this quickly, to see what
impact it has on performance.
Added a single byte or word (tranparently) to all
allocations, and wrote a unique value into that
location after each allocation. When free() is
called, we validate the flag, and then mark
the block as not being allocated.
Any time a block fails to validate, we crash,
as this means the object either overran its
allocated region (or suffered memory corruption),
or else (more likely) a double free took place.
We have two distinct crash stacks for the
two distinct validation problems (corrupt vs
double free).
