Rather than having the user take care of JSMallocState, take care of the bookkeeping internally (and make JSMallocState non-public since it's no longer necessary) and keep the allocation functions to the bare minimum.

This has the advantage that using a different allocator is just a few lines of code, and there is no need to copy the default implementation just to moficy the call to the allocation function.

Fixes: #285

After looking at the alllocation stuff closely yesterday I remembered #285 and decided to give it a try.

I like the way it turned out and simplifies the user-land code, let me know what you think! @bnoordhuis @chqrlie

Hi @saghul, sorry for the lag, a bit busy ATM, shall complete a review tonight :)

Rather than having the user take care of JSMallocState, take care of the
bookkeeping internally (and make JSMallocState non-public since it's no
longer necessary) and keep the allocation functions to the bare minimum.

This has the advantage that using a different allocator is just a few
lines of code, and there is no need to copy the default implementation
just to moficy the call to the allocation function.
