> [JAVA] enhance AllocationListener with an onFailedAllocation() call

> If an allocation fails, there might be an action taken by user code that will
> free up some memory before the allocation can be retried again. This action
> could include flushing some temporary buffers, getting rid of some
> temporarily cached data, or even spilling state to disk.
> Today's code is forced to catch out-of-memory exceptions, and then retry the
> operation at a high level. A more elegant way to do this is to have a
> callback whenever allocation failed. The callback would inform the allocator
> whether or not to retry the allocation.
> Since the allocator already has an AllocationListener, it makes sense to
> enhance the existing listener with a new method.
> {{The proposed signature is:}}
> {{ boolean onAllocationFailed(long allocationSize);}}
