Ooops.  I meant to ask everyone - what do y'all think about bmalloc continuing to be in its own library versus being folded in to WTF?

If it's folded into WTF, then we'll have to be a bit more careful about which parts of WTF we use from bmalloc, so as to not create a circularity.

If it's not folded, then we'll probably need to create a new library to represent the things that are shared between the two.

Right now, WTF and bmalloc effectively share code for Gigacage, but the way they do it is that it's kinda duplicated between them. It's gross.

Next, I'm going to pull WordLock into bmalloc. Except I cannot remove it from WTF for the sake of platforms that don't build bmalloc. So, the code will be duplicated.
