5f3773b715 LibC: Increase minimum alignment for malloc() to 16 bytes
This is required to make SSE instructions work when building with
Clang. Apparently Clang uses SSE instructions where GCC didn't so
we didn't previously run into this problem.

f91bcb8895 LibC: Simplify malloc size classes
Problem:
- `size_classes` is a C-style array which makes it difficult to use in
  algorithms.
- `all_of` algorithm is re-written for the specific implementation.

Solution:
- Change `size_classes` to be an `Array`.
- Directly use the generic `all_of` algorithm instead of
  reimplementing.

3438829431 LibC: Lazily initialize malloc chunks
By default malloc manages memory internally in larger blocks. When
one of those blocks is added we initialize a free list by touching
each of the new block's pages, thereby committing all that memory
upfront.

This changes malloc to build the free list on demand which as a
bonus also distributes the latency hit for new blocks more evenly
because the page faults for the zero pages now don't happen all at
once.

edfe81b1ee LibC: static_assert that all malloc size classes have an alignment of 8
This will help prevent issues like the one fixed by #6703 from
happening again.
