Splitting the new Genode::Deallocator interface from the former Genode::Allocator interface enables us to restrict the accessible operations for code that is only supposed to release memory, but not perform any allocations. Additionally, this patch introduces variants of the 'new' operator that takes a reference (as opposed to a pointer) to a Genode::Allocator as argument.
This is generic part of the Genode implementation. It consists of two parts: :_Core_: is the ultimate root of the Genode application tree and provides abstractions for the lowest-level hardware resources such as RAM, ROM, CPU, and generic device access. All generic parts of Core can be found here - for system-specific implementations refer to the appropriate 'base-<system>' directory. :_Base libraries and protocols_: that are used by each Genode component to interact with other components. This is the glue that holds everything together.
