Implement `Allocator` for `Kmalloc`, the kernel's default allocator,
typically used for objects smaller than page size.

All memory allocations made with `Kmalloc` end up in `krealloc()`.

It serves as allocator for the subsequently introduced types `KBox` and
`KVec`.

This comment could potentially be moved to the previous patch that
defined the function.

In this case, the comment would usually be formatted with markdown.

/// # Invariants

/// Must contain one of the following: `krealloc`, `vrealloc`, `kvrealloc`.

The // INVARIANT: syntax is used when constructing an instance to
argue why the documentented invariants are satisfied.

Technically this should have an // INVARIANT: explaining why the
invariants are satisfied by this new value.

Similarly to the above, the // SAFETY: syntax is used when arguing why
the preconditions are satisfied, but when explaining what the
preconditions are, we usually use this syntax instead:

/// # Safety
///
/// This method has the same safety requirements as `Allocator::realloc`.

Agreed, I will change this one and the above.
