Actually ... an even-more-terrifyingly-plausible misuse is that the
supplied oldsize is different from the actual previous allocation.
We should try to check that.  In MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING builds
it should be possible to assert that oldsize == requested_size.
We don't have that data if !MEMORY_CONTEXT_CHECKING, but we could
at least assert that oldsize <= allocated chunk size.
