malloc: Remove bin scanning from memalign (bug 30723)
On the test workload (mpv --cache=yes with VP9 video decoding), the bin scanning has a very poor success rate (less than 2%). The tcache scanning has about 50% success rate, so keep that. Update comments in malloc/tst-memalign-2 to indicate the purpose of the tests. Even with the scanning removed, the additional merging opportunities since commit 542b1105 ("malloc: Enable merging of remainders in memalign (bug 30723)") are sufficient to pass the existing large bins test. Remove leftover variables from _int_free from refactoring in the same commit. Reviewed-by:DJ Delorie <dj@redhat.com> (cherry picked from commit 0dc7fc1c)
