Use Linux's prctl(PR_SET_VMA) system call to name memory arenas being allocated using mmap(MAP_ANONYMOUS). This change allows Abseil's memory arena(s) to be distinguished from other uses of anonymous memory within a process, which in turn helps investigations into the memory usage of applications. The change adds a new prctl() system call to the code paths that call mmap(). This is not expected to add significant overhead to applications. The call to prctl(PR_SET_VMA, ...) can fail if the Linux kernel in use was not configured with the CONFIG_ANON_VMA_NAME kernel option. This should be OK since the naming memory regions is primarily a debugging aid. PiperOrigin-RevId: 523687348 Change-Id: Ie404e5eeef0a6da53330b3a56149c4f3bc6bf5c7
