Call memset() only for large enough chunks of data

Calling memset() for small memory chunks can be expensive compared to
a simple loop.

Comment why we avoid calling free with null

Even when free() can be called with a null pointer, the extra call might
be significant. On hard GC benchmarks making the test for null in the GC
code (i.e. avoiding the free() call) can reduce the GC time by almost ~5%.

Use tango bindings to C standard library functions

As we need to use more libraries it became less practical to maintain our

sense to just use Tango bindings.

Remove the MULTI_THREADED version

This will be an inherently concurrent GC, so having a non-threaded version

a little overhead too, in both space and time).
