[ruby-core:69080] Re: [Ruby trunk - Feature #11098] [Open] Thread-level allocation counting

I don't mind this patch and even see it as an opportunity to drop
objspace->total_allocated_objects entirely and rely exclusively on
thread-local counters for GC.

I toyed around with a similar idea last year in [ruby-core:61424] for
malloc accounting but haven't gotten much further.  I might investigate
this again over the summer.

Anyways some minor nits inline:

That would trip -Werror=declaration-after-statement in GCC.  Declare
`th' earlier or avoid the local variable entirely since you're only
reading that once.

     GET_THREAD()->allocated_objects++;

Use uint64_t to avoid overflow on 32-bit systems as this counter never
resets.  This should never be a signed value.
