/* VolatileBuffer
*
* This class represents a piece of memory that can potentially be reclaimed
* by the OS when not in use. As long as there are one or more
* VolatileBufferPtrs holding on to a VolatileBuffer, the memory will remain
* available. However, when there are no VolatileBufferPtrs holding a
* VolatileBuffer, the OS can purge the pages if it wants to. The OS can make
* better decisions about what pages to purge than we can.
*
* VolatileBuffers may not always be volatile - if the allocation is too small,
* or if the OS doesn't support the feature, or if the OS doesn't want to,
* the buffer will be allocated on heap.
*
* VolatileBuffer allocations are fallible. They are intended for uses where
* one may allocate large buffers for caching data. Init() must be called
* exactly once.
*
* After getting a reference to VolatileBuffer using VolatileBufferPtr,
* WasPurged() can be used to check if the OS purged any pages in the buffer.
* The OS cannot purge a buffer immediately after a VolatileBuffer is
* initialized. At least one VolatileBufferPtr must be created before the
* buffer can be purged, so the first use of VolatileBufferPtr does not need
* to check WasPurged().
*
* When a buffer is purged, some or all of the buffer is zeroed out. This
* API cannot tell which parts of the buffer were lost.
*
* VolatileBuffer and VolatileBufferPtr are threadsafe.
