    libc and pthreads - Fix atfork issues with nmalloc, update dmalloc
    
    * Implement atfork handling for nmalloc.  As part of this, refactor
      some of nmalloc.
    
    * Remove ZERO_LENGTH_PTR from nmalloc.  Instead, force 0-byte
      allocations to allocate 1 byte.  The standard requires unique
      pointers to be returned.
    
    * For now go back to a single depot lock instead of a per-zone
      lock.  It is unclear whether multi-threaded performance will
      suffer or not, but its the only way to implement atfork handling.
    
    * Implement proper atfork interlocks for nmalloc via pthreads to avoid
      corruption when heavily threaded programs call fork().
    
    * Bring dmalloc up to date in various ways, including properly
      implementing a minimum 16-byte alignment for allocations >= 16 bytes,
      and atfork handling.  Also use a global depot lock for the same
      reason we use it in nmalloc, and implement a front-end magazine
      shortcut for any allocations <= 2MB.
