Okay, having seen the discussion and now realized that my initial cut
was too rough, here are some changes:
Parrot_allocate now takes a Buffer pointer and allocates into it,
setting the length to what was really allocated.
Parrot_reallocate takes a Buffer pointer and a size, and resizes things.
Parrot_realloc is dead.
I'm currently not thinking that any sort of plain "get me GC memory
but I'm not going to anchor it" routine is a good idea, but I can be
convinced otherwise.
