    PageReservation

    Like PageAllocation, the PageReservation class provides a cross-platform memory
    allocation interface, but with a set of capabilities more similar to that of
    VirtualAlloc than posix mmap.  PageReservation can be used to allocate virtual
    memory without committing physical memory pages using PageReservation::reserve.
    Following a call to reserve all memory in the region is in a decommited state,
    in which the memory should not be used (accessing the memory may cause a fault).

    Before using memory it must be committed by calling commit, which is passed start
    and size values (both of which require system page size granularity).  One the
    committed memory is no longer needed 'decommit' may be called to return the
    memory to its devommitted state.  Commit should only be called on memory that is
    currently decommitted, and decommit should only be called on memory regions that
    are currently committed.  All memory should be decommited before the reservation
    is deallocated.  Values in memory may not be retained accross a pair of calls if
    the region of memory is decommitted and then committed again.

    Memory protection should not be changed on decommitted memory, and if protection
    is changed on memory while it is committed it should be returned to the orignal
    protection before decommit is called.
