7eabea01d6 Add an Architecture Abstraction Layer.
Currently, we support one architecture, but this provides a layer for
adding other architectures without adding more nested `#ifdef`s.

Fixes #42

829d8e856b Tweak some tests to avoid the slowest path.
By caching the result of the first call to ThreadAlloc::get(), we were
always hitting a code path that should be hit once per thread in normal
operation.

b8a5d7fca9 Lazily initialise TLS on slow paths.
Copying an idea from mimalloc, initialise the TLS variable to a global
allocator that doesn't own any memory and then lazily check when we hit
a slow path (which we always do when using the global allocator, because
it doesn't own any memory) if we are the global allocator and replace
it.

There is a slight complication compared to mimalloc's version of this
idea.  Snmalloc collects outgoing messages and it's possible for the
first operation in a thread to be a free of memory allocated by a
different thread.  We address this by initialising the queues with a
size value indicating that they are full and then do the lazy check when
about to insert a message that would make a queue full.  This will then
trigger lazy creation of an allocator.

Global initialisation doesn't work for the fake allocator, so skip most
of its constructor.

e51f1c3d50 Namespace test globals for external_pointer
Some times the global count was leading to a warning with a local count
in the test.
