IMPALA-5073: Part 1: add option to use mmap() for buffer pool

Support allocating with mmap instead of TCMalloc to give more control
over memory usage. Also tell Linux to back larger buffers with huge
pages when possible to reduce TLB pressure. The main complication is
that memory returned by mmap() is not necessarily aligned to a huge
page boundary, so we need to "fix up" the mapping ourselves.

Adds additional memory metrics, since we previously relied on the
assumption that all memory was allocated through TCMalloc.
memory.total-used tracks the total across the buffer pool and
TCMalloc. When the buffer pool is not present, they just report
the TCMalloc values.

This can be enabled with the --mmap_buffers flag. The transparent
huge pages support can be disabled with the --madvise_huge_pages
startup flag.

At some point this should become the default, but it requires
more work to validate perf and resource used (virtual address
space, etc).

Testing:
Added some unit tests to test edge cases and the different supported
flags. Many pre-existing tests also exercise the modified code.
