[PATCH 3/3] rust: alloc: Add realloc and alloc_zeroed to the GlobalAlloc impl

From: Boqun Feng
Date: Sat Jul 29 2023 - 21:30:18 EST


From: Björn Roy Baron <bjorn3_gh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

While there are default impls for these methods, using the respective C
api's is faster. Currently neither the existing nor these new
GlobalAlloc method implementations are actually called. Instead the
__rust_* function defined below the GlobalAlloc impl are used. With
rustc 1.71 these functions will be gone and all allocation calls will go
through the GlobalAlloc implementation.
