Reland "base/allocator: Respect malloc() alignment guarantees in PartitionAlloc."

This reverts commit 25c28325359ee3ce2a640bb4367d38b7c677e6b9.

Reason for revert: Updated the failing test.

> Original change's description:
> > base/allocator: Respect malloc() alignment guarantees in PartitionAlloc.
> >
> > Generally speaking, malloc() must return data suitably aligned for
> > std::max_align_t. In practice this means 16 bytes on 64 bit
> > architectures, whereas PartitionAlloc only provides 8 there. This is
> > problematic to use it as a malloc() replacement.
> >
> > This CL makes PartitionAlloc respect the alignment guarantees on 64 bit
> > architectures.

Logo Chromium

Chromium is an open-source browser project that aims to build a safer, faster, and more stable way for all users to experience the web.

The project's web site is https://www.chromium.org.

Documentation in the source is rooted in docs/README.md.

Learn how to Get Around the Chromium Source Code Directory Structure .

For historical reasons, there are some small top level directories. Now the guidance is that new top level directories are for product (e.g. Chrome, Android WebView, Ash). Even if these products have multiple executables, the code should be in subdirectories of the product.
