libstdc++: Prefer posix_memalign for aligned-new [PR113258]
As described in PR libstdc++/113258 there are old versions of tcmalloc which replace malloc and related APIs, but do not repalce aligned_alloc because it didn't exist at the time they were released. This means that when operator new(size_t, align_val_t) uses aligned_alloc to obtain memory, it comes from libc's aligned_alloc not from tcmalloc. But when operator delete(void*, size_t, align_val_t) uses free to deallocate the memory, that goes to tcmalloc's replacement version of free, which doesn't know how to free it. If we give preference to the older posix_memalign instead of aligned_alloc then we're more likely to use a function that will be compatible with the replacement version of free. Because posix_memalign has been around for longer, it's more likely that old third-party malloc replacements will also replace posix_memalign alongside malloc and free. libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog: PR libstdc++/113258 * libsupc++/new_opa.cc: Prefer to use posix_memalign if available.
