/**
 * Allocator for custom memory management.
 * 
 * An UCX allocator consists of a pointer to the memory area / pool and four
 * function pointers to memory management functions operating on this memory
 * area / pool. These functions shall behave equivalent to the standard libc
 * functions <code>malloc(), calloc(), realloc()</code> and <code>free()</code>.
 * 
 * The signature of the memory management functions is based on the signature
 * of the respective libc function but each of them takes the pointer to the
 * memory area / pool as first argument.
 * 
 * As the pointer to the memory area / pool can be arbitrarily chosen, any data
 * can be provided to the memory management functions. An UcxMempool is just
 * one example.
