> This PR is based on the work of @mernst-github and aims to implement an _internal_ thread-local 'stack' allocator, which works like a dynamically sized arena, but with reset functionality to reset the allocated size back to a certain level. The underlying memory could stay around between calls, which could improve performance.
> 
> Re-allocated segments are not zeroed between allocations.
