Hi,

the attached patch is the beginning of introducing emalloc_t and friends
to the engine which passes TSRM information to emalloc. Or to be
correct when the full work is done the _emalloc calls are replaced by
_emalloc_t calls which no longer need to do TSRMLS_FETCH().

As you can see i haven't done everything but from what i measured so far
i'd expect a performance increase of about 10%.

Also when all is done there will be NO difference when in non ZTS mode.
And since i left the old function names as inline funcs the API doesn't
even change. However it is a good idea to change all the _emalloc calls
to the new _emalloc_t calls as i've done with the streams stuff already.

If we can find a consensus here i'll work that stuff out and apply it asap.

regards
marcus
