Attachment: Bug 1401101 - Remove the generic replace-malloc library.

It is one of the moving parts when adding new memory allocation APIs.

It was added in bug 1168719 and the only thing that actually used it
was the sampling-based memory profiler, which was removed in bug
1385953. We however keep the replace-malloc bridge entry point so that
something else, in the future, may still provide the feature.
