NSData created by dataWithUserTypedString causes a crash when
MALLOC_HEAP_BREAKDOWN is turned on

Reviewed by Mark Lam and Darin Adler.
The function has been changed some 6 months ago to use a Vector<char> to
allocate and populate the
memory buffer, instead of a raw malloc and pointer operations. The buffer is
then extracted from the
vector and registered to be freed using FastMalloc::free(). This assumes that
the buffer was
initially allocated by FastMalloc. The assumption doesn't hold when
MALLOC_HEAP_BREAKDOWN is on and
vector buffers are allocated by VectorBufferMalloc. FastMalloc::free() in that
case sees the pointer
as misaligned and crashes. This happens on startup in both Safari and
MiniBrowser.
The patch changes the deallocator logic to use VectorBufferMalloc::free(),
which automatically
uses the allocator appropriate for the current MALLOC_HEAP_BREAKDOWN setting.
