/*! @class IORangeAllocator
    @abstract A utility class to manage allocations from a range.
    @discussion The IORangeAllocator class provides functions for allocating ranges, at a fixed or any offset, and freeing them back to a free list. It is useful for describing ranges of memory or address space without requiring storage in the memory - information describing the free elements is kept elsewhere. Ranges are described by a start offset and a size. IORangeAllocator is optionally protected against multithreaded access.

If zero is passed, the free list will be initialized empty, and can be populated with calls to the deallocate method.
    @param defaultAlignment If this parameter is non-zero it specifies a required alignment for all allocations, for example pass 256 to align allocations on 256 byte boundaries. Zero or one specify unaligned allocations.
