// By keeping a tally on heap operations, it's possible to track:
// - the number of alloc/free operations, where a realloc is zero or one
// of each, depending on the input parameters (see man realloc).
// - the number of bytes allocated/freed.
// - the number of estimated bytes of heap overhead used.
// - the high-watermark amount of bytes allocated in the scope.
// This in turn allows measuring the memory usage and memory usage churn over
// a scope. Scopes must be cleanly nested, and each scope must be
// destroyed on the thread where it's created.
//
// Note that this depends on the capabilities of the underlying heap shim. If
// that shim can not yield a size estimate for an allocation, it's not possible
// to keep track of overhead, freed bytes and the allocation high water mark.
