2016-10-27support: Add LockedPoolWladimir J. van der Laan
Add a pool for locked memory chunks, replacing LockedPageManager. This is something I've been wanting to do for a long time. The current approach of locking objects where they happen to be on the stack or heap in-place causes a lot of mlock/munlock system call overhead, slowing down any handling of keys. Also locked memory is a limited resource on many operating systems (and using a lot of it bogs down the system), so the previous approach of locking every page that may contain any key information (but also other information) is wasteful.

Pagelocker is only needed for secure (usually wallet) operations, so don't make the zero-after-free allocator depend on it.
