Mark free blocks in pooled carriers as unused (MADV_FREE)
This lets the OS reclaim the physical memory associated with these blocks which reduces the impact of long-lived awkward allocations. A small allocated block will still keep a huge carrier alive, but the unused part of the carrier will now be available to the OS. Co-authored-by: Dmytro Lytovchenko <[email protected]>
