/**
 * An allocator which uses Jemalloc to create an dedicated arena to allocate
 * memory from. The only special property set on the allocated memory is that
 * the memory is not dump-able.
 *
 * This is done by setting MADV_DONTDUMP using the `madvise` system call. A
 * custom hook installed which is called when allocating a new chunk / extent of
 * memory.  All it does is call the original jemalloc hook to allocate the
 * memory and then set the advise on it before returning the pointer to the
 * allocated memory. Jemalloc does not use allocated chunks / extents across
 * different arenas, without `munmap`-ing them first, and the advises are not
 * sticky i.e. they are unset if `munmap` is done. Also this arena can't be used
 * by any other part of the code by just calling `malloc`.
 *
 * If target system doesn't support MADV_DONTDUMP or jemalloc doesn't support
 * custom arena hook, JemallocNodumpAllocator would fall back to using malloc /
 * free. Such behavior can be identified by using
 * !defined(FOLLY_JEMALLOC_NODUMP_ALLOCATOR_SUPPORTED).
 *
 * Similarly, if binary isn't linked with jemalloc, the logic would fall back to
 * malloc / free.
