Currently, places where we call __libcpp_allocate must drop type information on the ground even when they actually have such information available. That is unfortunate since some toolchains and system allocators are able to provide improved security when they know what type is being allocated. This is the purpose of http://wg21.link/p2719, where we introduce a new variant of `operator new` which takes a type in its interface. A different but related issue is that `std::allocator` does not honor any in-class `T::operator new` since it is specified to call the global `::operator new` instead. This patch closes the gap to make it trivial for implementations that provide typed memory allocators to actually benefit from that information in more contexts, and also makes libc++ forward-compatible with future proposals that would fix the existing defects in `std::allocator`. It also makes the internal allocation API higher level by operating on objects instead of operating on bytes of memory. Since this is a widely-used function and making this a template could have an impact on debug info sizes, I tried minimizing the number of templated layers by removing `__do_deallocate_handle_size`, which was easy to replace with a macro (and IMO this leads to cleaner code).
