switch jemalloc dependency to facebook/jemalloc and mark it as unstable

Open BusyJay opened this issue 2 months ago • 1 comments

Now that jemalloc/jemalloc is actively maintained as facebook/jemalloc, we may also switch to the fork instead.

And to allow evaluate unreleased features (last jemalloc version was released 3 years ago), we may publish a new version of jemallocator that depends on facebook/jemalloc and mark it 0.7.0+2025.09.15-nightly. 0.7.0 is supposed to be next minor version, 2025.09.15 is the latest change commit date from facebook/jemalloc and -nightly denotes it's a pre-release version and may not be used in serious scenarios.

Would adding pkg-config support also be acceptable, maybe with the vendored jemalloc sources being used as a fallback?
