    /// A memory allocator that can be registered as the standard library’s default
    /// through the `#[global_allocator]` attribute.

    /// Some of the methods require that a memory block be *currently
    /// allocated* via an allocator. This means that:
    ///
    /// * the starting address for that memory block was previously
    ///   returned by a previous call to an allocation method
    ///   such as `alloc`, and
    ///
    /// * the memory block has not been subsequently deallocated, where
    ///   blocks are deallocated either by being passed to a deallocation
    ///   method such as `dealloc` or by being
    ///   passed to a reallocation method that returns a non-null pointer.
    ///
    ///
    /// # Example
    ///
    /// ```no_run
    /// use std::alloc::{GlobalAlloc, Layout, alloc};
    /// use std::ptr::null_mut;
    ///
    /// struct MyAllocator;
    ///
    /// unsafe impl GlobalAlloc for MyAllocator {
    ///     unsafe fn alloc(&self, _layout: Layout) -> *mut u8 { null_mut() }
    ///     unsafe fn dealloc(&self, _ptr: *mut u8, _layout: Layout) {}
    /// }
    ///
    /// #[global_allocator]
    /// static A: MyAllocator = MyAllocator;
    ///
    /// fn main() {
    ///     unsafe {
    ///         assert!(alloc(Layout::new::<u32>()).is_null())
    ///     }
    /// }
    /// ```
    ///
    /// # Safety
    ///
    /// The `GlobalAlloc` trait is an `unsafe` trait for a number of reasons, and
    /// implementors must ensure that they adhere to these contracts:
    ///
    /// * It's undefined behavior if global allocators unwind. This restriction may
    ///   be lifted in the future, but currently a panic from any of these
    ///   functions may lead to memory unsafety.
    ///
    /// * `Layout` queries and calculations in general must be correct. Callers of
    ///   this trait are allowed to rely on the contracts defined on each method,
    ///   and implementors must ensure such contracts remain true.
