malloc: Remove bin scanning from memalign (bug 30723)
On the test workload (mpv --cache=yes with VP9 video decoding), the

malloc: Enable merging of remainders in memalign (bug 30723)
Previously, calling _int_free from _int_memalign could put remainders
into the tcache or into fastbins, where they are invisible to the
low-level allocator. This results in missed merge opportunities
because once these freed chunks become available to the low-level
allocator, further memalign allocations (even of the same size are)
likely obstructing merges.
Furthermore, during forwards merging in _int_memalign, do not
completely give up when the remainder is too small to serve as a
chunk on its own. We can still give it back if it can be merged
with the following unused chunk. This makes it more likely that
memalign calls in a loop achieve a compact memory layout,
independently of initial heap layout.
Drop some useless (unsigned long) casts along the way, and tweak
the style to more closely match GNU on changed lines.

Limit reuse only when it is within the alignment padding, which is 2 *

hurd: Implement MAP_EXCL
MAP_FIXED is defined to silently replace any existing mappings at the
address range being mapped over. This, however, is a dangerous, and only
rarely desired behavior.
Various Unix systems provide replacements or additions to MAP_FIXED:
* SerenityOS and Linux provide MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE. If the address space
already contains a mapping in the requested range, Linux returns
EEXIST. SerenityOS returns ENOMEM, however that is a bug, as the
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE implementation is intended to be compatible with
Linux.
* FreeBSD provides the MAP_EXCL flag that has to be used in combination
with MAP_FIXED. It returns EINVAL if the requested range already
contains existing mappings. This is directly analogous to the O_EXCL
flag in the open () call.
* DragonFly BSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD provide MAP_TRYFIXED, but with
different semantics. DragonFly BSD returns ENOMEM if the requested
range already contains existing mappings. NetBSD does not return an
error, but instead creates the mapping at a different address if the
requested range contains mappings. OpenBSD behaves the same, but also
notes that this is the default behavior even without MAP_TRYFIXED
(which is the case on the Hurd too).
Since the Hurd leans closer to the BSD side, add MAP_EXCL as the primary
API to request the behavior of not replacing existing mappings. Declare
MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE and MAP_TRYFIXED as aliases of (MAP_FIXED|MAP_EXCL),
so any existing software that checks for either of those macros will
pick them up automatically. For compatibility with Linux, return EEXIST
