Original commit message:
Add option to report discarded allocations in sampling heap profiler
A couple of customers have asked about using devtools to get information
about temporary allocations, with the goal of reducing GC time and/or
peak memory usage. Currently, the sampling heap profiler reports only
objects which are still alive at the end of the profiling session. In
this change, I propose adding configuration options when starting the
sampling heap profiler so that it can optionally include information
about objects which were discarded by the GC before the end of the
profiling session. A user could run the sampling heap profiler in
several different modes depending on their goals:
1. To find memory leaks or determine which functions contribute most to
steady-state memory consumption, the current default mode is best.
2. To find functions which cause large temporary memory spikes or large
GC pauses, the user can request data about both live objects and
those collected by major GC.
3. To tune for minimal GC activity in latency-sensitive applications
like real-time audio processing, the user can request data about
every allocation, including objects collected by major or minor GC.
4. I'm not sure why anybody would want data about objects collected by
minor GC and not objects collected by major GC, but it's also a valid
flags combination.
