## Cross-thread allocation helpers backed by libc `malloc`/`free`.
##
## We deliberately avoid Nim's `allocShared`/`deallocShared` here. Under
## `--mm:orc` they delegate to the per-thread `allocator` MemRegion stored
## in TLS; freeing such a buffer from a different thread later walks
## `chunk.owner` back to that MemRegion. If the original thread has exited
## by then (e.g. a `std::async` worker that produced the FFI request and
## was destroyed before the FFI thread ran `deleteRequest`), `chunk.owner`
## dangles into reclaimed TLS and `addToSharedFreeList` segfaults — TSan on
## ARM reproduces this from `TimerE2E.ThreadedHammer`. `malloc`/`free` are
## process-global and thread-lifetime-independent, so freeing on a different
## thread is safe.
