/**
 * An arena controls the lifecycle of native memory segments, providing both flexible
 * allocation and timely deallocation.
 * <p>
 * An arena has a {@linkplain MemorySegment.Scope scope} - the <em>arena scope</em>.
 * All the segments allocated by the arena are associated with the arena scope. As such,
 * the arena determines the temporal bounds of all the memory segments allocated by it.
 * <p>
 * Moreover, an arena also determines whether access to memory segments allocated by it
 * should be {@linkplain MemorySegment#isAccessibleBy(Thread) restricted} to specific
 * threads. An arena is a {@link SegmentAllocator} and features several allocation
 * methods that can be used by clients to obtain native segments.
 * <p>
 * The simplest arena is the {@linkplain Arena#global() global arena}. The global arena
 * features an <em>unbounded lifetime</em>. The scope of the global arena is the global
 * scope. As such, native segments allocated with the global arena are always accessible
 * and their backing regions of memory are never deallocated. Moreover, memory segments
 * allocated with the global arena can be {@linkplain MemorySegment#isAccessibleBy(Thread) accessed}
 * from any thread.
 * {@snippet lang = java:
 * MemorySegment segment = Arena.global().allocate(100, 1); // @highlight regex='global()'
 * ...
 * // segment is never deallocated!
 *}
 * <p>
 * Alternatively, clients can obtain an {@linkplain Arena#ofAuto() automatic arena}, that
 * is an arena which features a <em>bounded lifetime</em> that is managed, automatically,
 * by the garbage collector. The scope of an automatic arena is an automatic scope. As
 * such, the regions of memory backing memory segments allocated with the automatic arena
 * are deallocated at some unspecified time <em>after</em> the automatic arena (and all
 * the segments allocated by it) becomes <a href="../../../java/lang/ref/package.html#reachability">unreachable</a>,
 * as shown below:
 * {@snippet lang = java:
 * MemorySegment segment = Arena.ofAuto().allocate(100, 1); // @highlight regex='ofAuto()'
 * ...
 * segment = null; // the segment region becomes available for deallocation after this point
 *}
 * Memory segments allocated with an automatic arena can also be
 * {@linkplain MemorySegment#isAccessibleBy(Thread) accessed} from any thread.
 * <p>
 * Rather than leaving deallocation in the hands of the Java runtime, clients will often
 * wish to exercise control over the timing of deallocation for regions of memory that
 * back memory segments. Two kinds of arenas support this, namely {@linkplain #ofConfined() confined}
 * and {@linkplain #ofShared() shared} arenas. They both feature bounded lifetimes that
 * are managed manually. For instance, when a confined arena is {@linkplain #close() closed}
 * successfully, its scope is {@linkplain Scope#isAlive() invalidated}. As a result, all
 * the memory segments allocated by the arena can no longer be accessed, and their
 * regions of memory are deallocated:
 *
 * {@snippet lang = java:
 * MemorySegment segment = null;
 * try (Arena arena = Arena.ofConfined()) { // @highlight regex='ofConfined()'
 *     segment = arena.allocate(100);
 *     ...
 * } // segment region deallocated here
 * segment.get(ValueLayout.JAVA_BYTE, 0); // throws IllegalStateException
 *}
 *
 * Memory segments allocated with a {@linkplain #ofConfined() confined arena} can only be
 * accessed (and closed) by the thread that created the arena. If access to a memory
 * segment from multiple threads is required, clients can allocate segments in a
 * {@linkplain #ofShared() shared arena} instead.
 * <p>
 * The characteristics of the various arenas are summarized in the following table:
 *
 * <blockquote><table class="plain">
 * <caption style="display:none">Arenas characteristics</caption>
 * <thead>

 * <h2 id = "thread-confinement">Safety and thread-confinement</h2>
 *
 * Arenas provide strong temporal safety guarantees: a memory segment allocated by an
 * arena cannot be accessed <em>after</em> the arena has been closed. The cost of
 * providing this guarantee varies based on the number of threads that have access to the
 * memory segments allocated by the arena. For instance, if an arena is always created
 * and closed by one thread, and the memory segments allocated by the arena are always
 * accessed by that same thread, then ensuring correctness is trivial.
 * <p>
 * Conversely, if an arena allocates segments that can be accessed by multiple threads,
 * or if the arena can be closed by a thread other than the accessing thread, then
 * ensuring correctness is much more complex. For example, a segment allocated with the
 * arena might be accessed <em>while</em> another thread attempts, concurrently, to close
 * the arena. To provide the strong temporal safety guarantee without forcing every
 * client, even simple ones, to incur a performance impact, arenas are divided into
 * <em>thread-confined</em> arenas, and <em>shared</em> arenas.
 * <p>
 * Confined arenas, support strong thread-confinement guarantees. Upon creation, they are
 * assigned an <em>owner thread</em>, typically the thread which initiated the creation
 * operation. The segments created by a confined arena can only be
 * {@linkplain MemorySegment#isAccessibleBy(Thread) accessed} by the owner thread.
 * Moreover, any attempt to close the confined arena from a thread other than the owner
 * thread will fail with a {@link WrongThreadException}.
 * <p>
 * Shared arenas, on the other hand, have no owner thread. The segments created by a
 * shared arena can be {@linkplain MemorySegment#isAccessibleBy(Thread) accessed} by
 * any thread. This might be useful when multiple threads need to access the same memory
 * segment concurrently (e.g. in the case of parallel processing). Moreover, a shared
 * arena can be closed by any thread.
 *
 * <h2 id = "custom-arenas">Custom arenas</h2>
 *
 * Clients can define custom arenas to implement more efficient allocation strategies,
 * or to have better control over when (and by whom) an arena can be closed. As an
 * example, the following code defines a <em>slicing arena</em> that behaves like a
 * confined arena (i.e., single-threaded access), but internally uses a
 * {@linkplain SegmentAllocator#slicingAllocator(MemorySegment) slicing allocator} to
 * respond to allocation requests.
 * When the slicing arena is closed, the underlying confined arena is also closed; this
 * will invalidate all segments allocated with the slicing arena (since the scope of the
 * slicing arena is the same as that of the underlying confined arena):
 *
 * {@snippet lang = java:
 * class SlicingArena implements Arena {
 *     final Arena arena = Arena.ofConfined();
 *     final SegmentAllocator slicingAllocator;
 *
 *     SlicingArena(long size) {
 *         slicingAllocator = SegmentAllocator.slicingAllocator(arena.allocate(size));
 *     }
 *
 *     public MemorySegment allocate(long byteSize, long byteAlignment) {
 *         return slicingAllocator.allocate(byteSize, byteAlignment);
 *     }
 *
 *     public MemorySegment.Scope scope() {
 *         return arena.scope();
 *     }
 *
 *     public void close() {
 *         arena.close();
 *     }
 *
 * }
 * }
 *
 * In other words, a slicing arena provides a vastly more efficient and scalable
 * allocation strategy, while still retaining the timely deallocation guarantee provided
 * by the underlying confined arena:
 *
 * {@snippet lang = java:
 * try (Arena slicingArena = new SlicingArena(1000)) {
 *     for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
 *         MemorySegment s = slicingArena.allocateFrom(JAVA_INT, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
 *         ...
 *     }
 * } // all memory allocated is released here
 * }
 *
 * @implSpec
 * Implementations of this interface are thread-safe.
