// Fixed-size scalable pool allocator with 32-bit "handles" returned.  Reserves
// virtual memory in big regions.  It's optimized for per-thread allocations,
// and intended to be used for SdfPath.  The Tag template argument just serves
// as to distinguish one pool instantiation from another with otherwise
// equivalent template arguments.  The ElemSize argument is the size of an
// allocated element in bytes.  It must be at least 4 bytes.  The RegionBits
// argument determines how many contiguous "chunks" of virtual memory the pool
// will use.  A good number for this is 8, meaning we'll have at most 256
// "regions" or "chunks" of contiguous virtual memory, each 2^24 times ElemSize
// bytes in size.  To allocate from reserved chunks, each thread acquires a span
// to hold ElemsPerSpan elements from the range, then uses that to dole out
// individual allocations.  When freed, allocations are placed on a thread-local
// free list, and eventually shared back for use by other threads when the free
// list gets large.
