Add __memprof_profile_reset() interface which can be used to facilitate
dumping multiple rounds of profiles from a single binary run. This
closes the current file descriptor and resets the internal file
descriptor to invalid (-1), which ensures the underlying writer reopens
the recorded profile filename. This can be used once the client is done
moving or copying a dumped profile, to prepare for reinvoking profile
dumping.
This is necessary for many projects which pass `/Gz` to their compiles,
which makes their default calling convention `__stdcall`.
(personal note, I _really_ wish there was a pragma for this)

Follow on companion to the clang/llvm instrumentation support in D85948
and committed earlier.
This patch adds the compiler-rt runtime support for the memory
profiling.
Note that much of this support was cloned from asan (and then greatly
simplified and renamed). For example the interactions with the
sanitizer_common allocators, error handling, interception, etc.
The bulk of the memory profiling specific code can be found in the
MemInfoBlock, MemInfoBlockCache, and related classes defined and used
in memprof_allocator.cpp.
For now, the memory profile is dumped to text (stderr by default, but
honors the sanitizer_common log_path flag). It is dumped in either a
default verbose format, or an optional terse format.
This patch also adds a set of tests for the core functionality.
