Optimize memory usage in incidentd
EncodedBuffer is used a lot in incidentd. EncodedBuffer uses malloc internally to acquire memory. Frequently creating and destroying EncodedBuffer creates memory fragmentation, leading to high memory usage after taking an incident report. Also fixes a few other places with lots of malloc/free operations. This change: * Creates a pool of EncodedBuffer in incidentd. The saving is significant. It reduces EncodedBuffer creation from 3 per section to 3 per report. * Replaces malloc with mmap inside EncodedBuffer. mmap is guaranteed to be mem page aligned, so there will be no mem fragmentation after destroying EncodedBuffer. * Replaces new with mmap inside TombstoneSection * Forks a process to execute LogSection, because liblog malloc & free significant amount of memory Result: PSS before taking a report: 1295 KB PSS after taking a report: 1336 KB Bug: 150311553 Test: heapprofd Change-Id: I83bd9c969b751c80b2f42747020799bd85d8aae6
