This module defines `TypedAllocator`, a statically-typed allocator that
aggregates multiple untyped allocators and uses them depending on the static
properties of the types allocated. For example, distinct allocators may be used
for thread-local vs. thread-shared data, or for fixed-size data (`struct`,
`class` objects) vs. resizable data (arrays).

This is the most specific allocation policy: the memory being allocated is
thread local, has no indirections at all, and will not be reallocated. Examples
of types fitting this description: `int`, `double`, $(D Tuple!(int, long)), but
not $(D Tuple!(int, string)), which contains an indirection.)

$(T2 AllocFlag.threadLocal |$(NBSP)AllocFlag.hasNoIndirections,
As above, but may be reallocated later. Examples of types fitting this
description are `int[]`, `double[]`, $(D Tuple!(int, long)[]), but not
$(D Tuple!(int, string)[]), which contains an indirection.)

$(T2 AllocFlag.threadLocal,
As above, but may embed indirections. Examples of types fitting this
description are `int*[]`, `Object[]`, $(D Tuple!(int, string)[]).)

$(T2 AllocFlag.immutableShared |$(NBSP)AllocFlag.hasNoIndirections
|$(NBSP)AllocFlag.fixedSize,
The type being allocated is `immutable` and has no pointers. The thread that
allocated it must also deallocate it. Example: `immutable(int)`.)

$(T2 AllocFlag.immutableShared |$(NBSP)AllocFlag.hasNoIndirections,
As above, but the type may be appended to in the future. Example: `string`.)

$(T2 AllocFlag.immutableShared,
As above, but the type may embed references. Example: `immutable(Object)[]`.)

$(T2 AllocFlag.hasNoIndirections |$(NBSP)AllocFlag.fixedSize,
The type being allocated may be shared across threads, embeds no indirections,
and has fixed size.)

$(T2 AllocFlag.hasNoIndirections,
The type being allocated may be shared across threads, may embed indirections,
and has variable size.)

$(T2 AllocFlag.fixedSize,
The type being allocated may be shared across threads, may embed indirections,
and has fixed size.)

$(T2 0, The most conservative/general allocation: memory may be shared,
deallocated in a different thread, may or may not be resized, and may embed
references.)
