Module allocation

Available on crate feature extern_crate_alloc only.

Stuff to boost things in the alloc crate.

• You must enable the extern_crate_alloc feature of bytemuck or you will not be able to use this module! This is generally done by adding the feature to the dependency in Cargo.toml like so:

  bytemuck = { version = "VERSION_YOU_ARE_USING", features = ["extern_crate_alloc"]}
