It's nice to see some examples of the testing framework being used. I'll have to play around with it sometime :-). Thanks, Taylor

Memory pool allocations that require a new block and would fill at least half of it are handled specially. Before 158dfeff3d (mem-pool: add life cycle management functions, 2018-07-02) they used to be allocated outside of the pool. This patch made mem_pool_alloc() create a bespoke block instead, to allow releasing it when the pool gets discarded. Unfortunately mem_pool_alloc() returns a pointer to the start of such a bespoke block, i.e. to the struct mp_block at its top. When the caller writes to it, the management information gets corrupted. This affects mem_pool_discard() and -- if there are no other blocks in the pool -- also mem_pool_alloc(). Return the payload pointer of bespoke blocks, just like for smaller allocations, to protect the management struct. Also update next_free to mark the block as full. This is only strictly necessary for the first allocated block, because subsequent ones are inserted after the current block and never considered for further allocations, but it's easier to just do it in all cases. Add a basic unit test to demonstrate the issue by using mem_pool_calloc() with a tiny block size, which forces the creation of a bespoke block.
