Modularised the malloc/free stuff into two modules: m_mallocfree for the
malloc/free implementation, and m_replacemalloc with the stuff for the tools that replace malloc with their own version. Previously these two areas of functionality were mixed up somewhat. git-svn-id: svn://svn.valgrind.org/valgrind/trunk@3648 a5019735-40e9-0310-863c-91ae7b9d1cf9
