Introduce lib/alloc
alloc supplies three ingredients to the test framework that are all
related to the support of dynamic memory allocation.
The first is a set of alloc function wrappers for malloc and its
friends. Using wrappers allows test code and common code to use the
same interface for memory allocation at all stages, even though the
implementations may change with the stage, e.g. pre/post paging.
The second is a set of implementations for the alloc function
interfaces. These implementations are named early_*, as they can be
used almost immediately by the test framework.
The third is a very simple physical memory allocator, which the
early_* alloc functions build on.
