The
malloc
family of functions may return a null pointer for azero-size allocation, which should not be interpreted as an
out-of-memory error.
If the implementation does not return a null pointer, then handling
this will result in memory savings for zero-size types.
This also switches some code to
malloc_raw
in order to maintain acentralized point for handling out-of-memory in
rt::global_heap
