/**
 * @file memory_pool.h
 * @brief Size-class tiered memory pool with per-tier free lists and runtime statistics.
 *
 * @details
 * @c MemoryPool dispatches each allocation request to one of a fixed pyramid of size classes.
 * Every tier owns a singly-linked free list of fixed-size blocks plus a vector of upstream
 * chunks; the chunk capacity starts small and doubles geometrically until it reaches the
 * configured @c blocks_per_chunk.  Requests larger than the biggest tier (or with an alignment
 * stricter than @c alignof(std::max_align_t)) bypass the pool and route directly to
 * @c ::operator @c new / @c ::operator @c delete.
 *
 * @par Tier / bucket source

 * | @c clear / @c trim | Only fully-free chunks; live blocks preserved | Safe                |
 * | @c ~MemoryPool     | Every chunk unconditionally                   | Caller must quiesce |
 *
 * @par Example
 * @code
 *   auto& pool = vlink::MemoryPool::global_instance();
 *   void* p = pool.allocate(512);
 *   pool.deallocate(p, 512);                       // sizes MUST match
 *
 *   pool.trim();                                   // periodic memory reclaim
 * @endcode
 *
 * @note Public methods are @c noexcept and safe for concurrent use.  Per-tier locking means
 *       traffic across different size classes does not contend.  @c deallocate requires the
 *       same @p bytes value passed to @c allocate.  @c allocate returns @c nullptr on upstream
 *       OOM and never throws.
