Allocate freechunks bitmap as part of SlabContext
The bitmap used by SlabCheck to cross-check free chunks in a block used
to be allocated for each SlabCheck call, and was never freed. The memory
leak could be fixed by simply adding a pfree call, but it's actually a
bad idea to do any allocations in SlabCheck at all as it assumes the
state of the memory management as a whole is sane.
So instead we allocate the bitmap as part of SlabContext, which means
we don't need to do any allocations in SlabCheck and the bitmap goes
away together with the SlabContext.
Backpatch to 10, where the Slab context was introduced.
