// The CommitLimiter encapsulates the logic of "asking someone if it
//  is okay to further commit n words of memory". It exists to separate
//  this control logic from the low-level Metaspace code.
//
// The default variant of the CommitLimiter checks whether committing would
//  trigger MaxMetaspaceSize, in which case committing is denied. It also checks
//  whether we would hit the GC threshold, in which case committing is denied too.
//
// Other versions of this Limiter can be implemented for tests (see metaspace
//  gtests).
