deprecated way to allocate chunks of memory for GList, GSList and GNode

<para>
Prior to 2.10, #GAllocator was used as an efficient way to allocate
small pieces of memory for use with the #GList, #GSList and #GNode data
structures. Since 2.10, it has been completely replaced by the
<link linkend="glib-Memory-Slices">slice allocator</link> and deprecated.

<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
Memory Chunks
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
deprecated way to allocate groups of equal-sized chunks of memory
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
Memory chunks provide an space-efficient way to allocate equal-sized
pieces of memory, called atoms. However, due to the administrative
overhead (in particular for #G_ALLOC_AND_FREE, and when used from multiple
threads), they are in practise often slower than direct use of g_malloc().
Therefore, memory chunks have been deprecated in favor of the
<link linkend="glib-Memory-Slices">slice allocator</link>,
which has been added in 2.10. All internal uses of memory chunks in
GLib have been converted to the <literal>g_slice</literal> API.
</para>
<para>
There are two types of memory chunks, #G_ALLOC_ONLY, and #G_ALLOC_AND_FREE.
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>
#G_ALLOC_ONLY chunks only allow allocation of atoms. The atoms can never
be freed individually. The memory chunk can only be free in its entirety.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
#G_ALLOC_AND_FREE chunks do allow atoms to be freed individually.
The disadvantage of this is that the memory chunk has to keep track of which
atoms have been freed. This results in more memory being used and a slight
degradation in performance.
</para></listitem>
</itemizedlist>
</para>
<para>
To create a memory chunk use g_mem_chunk_new() or the convenience macro
g_mem_chunk_create().
</para>
<para>
To allocate a new atom use g_mem_chunk_alloc(), g_mem_chunk_alloc0(),
or the convenience macros g_chunk_new() or g_chunk_new0().
</para>
<para>
To free an atom use g_mem_chunk_free(), or the convenience macro
g_chunk_free(). (Atoms can only be freed if the memory chunk is created
with the type set to #G_ALLOC_AND_FREE.)
</para>
<para>
To free any blocks of memory which are no longer being used, use
g_mem_chunk_clean(). To clean all memory chunks, use g_blow_chunks().
</para>
<para>
To reset the memory chunk, freeing all of the atoms, use g_mem_chunk_reset().
</para>
<para>
To destroy a memory chunk, use g_mem_chunk_destroy().
</para>
<para>
To help debug memory chunks, use g_mem_chunk_info() and g_mem_chunk_print().

</para>
<!-- ##### FUNCTION g_mem_chunk_new ##### -->
<para>
Creates a new #GMemChunk.
</para>
@name: a string to identify the #GMemChunk. It is not copied so it
should be valid for the lifetime of the #GMemChunk. It is only used in
g_mem_chunk_print(), which is used for debugging.
@atom_size: the size, in bytes, of each element in the #GMemChunk.
@area_size: the size, in bytes, of each block of memory allocated to contain
the atoms.
@type: the type of the #GMemChunk.
#G_ALLOC_AND_FREE is used if the atoms will be freed individually.
#G_ALLOC_ONLY should be used if atoms will never be freed individually.
