Rationale: "Basic allocation" refers to things outside of parsing proper,
mostly initialization. If such allocations fail, the system is globally
emory-starved from which it will likely not recover by returning failure.
In this case, terminating the process is in fact the most robust strategy as
it may mean the difference between a permanent hang and a temporary crash.

This BSD call will have to be implemented on windows. Right now
we have a stub that just exits the process.

NEWS:
* Switching endianness mid-byte no longer potentially re-reads bytes.
* bit_offset now consistently refers to the number of bits already
  read.
* HParsedTokens now have a bit_length field; this is a size_t.  This
  may be removed for memory reasons.

The bit writer has not yet been updated to match; the result of
switching bit writer endianness in the middle of a byte remains
undefined.

Specify warning for internal only headers that are now installed for use
by extensions.

effects throughout, including use of inttypes.h/PRI[ud]64 because printf() is
still stuck in a long world, conversion of %lu to %zu for printing values of
type size_t, and changing/renaming the g_check_cmp* family of functions.

Refactored all of the desugaring code to no longer depend on memory being initialized to 0. Everything is about 12% faster now.
