 * Chunked allocator.
 *
 * A `git_pool` can be used when you want to cheaply allocate
 * multiple items of the same type and are willing to free them
 * all together with a single call.  The two most common cases
 * are a set of fixed size items (such as lots of OIDs) or a
 * bunch of strings.
 *
 * Internally, a `git_pool` allocates pages of memory and then
 * deals out blocks from the trailing unused portion of each page.
 * The pages guarantee that the number of actual allocations done
 * will be much smaller than the number of items needed.
 *
 * For examples of how to set up a `git_pool` see `git_pool_init`.
