+/// Basic [freelist](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_list) implementation
+/// for an allocator. This implementation buckets by chunk size, with a list
+/// of user-provided buckets. Each bucket is a linked list of storage chunks.
+/// Because this freelist uses the added chunks themselves as list nodes, there
+/// is a lower bound of `sizeof(FreeList.FreeListNode)` bytes for chunks which
+/// can be added to this freelist. There is also an implicit bucket for
+/// "everything else", for chunks which do not fit into a bucket.
+///
+/// Each added chunk will be added to the smallest bucket under which it fits.
+/// If it does not fit into any user-provided bucket, it will be added to the
+/// default bucket.
+///
+/// As an example, assume that the `FreeList` is configured with buckets of
+/// sizes {64, 128, 256, and 512} bytes. The internal state may look like the
+/// following:
+///
+/// @code{.unparsed}
+/// bucket[0] (64B) --> chunk[12B] --> chunk[42B] --> chunk[64B] --> NULL
+/// bucket[1] (128B) --> chunk[65B] --> chunk[72B] --> NULL
+/// bucket[2] (256B) --> NULL
+/// bucket[3] (512B) --> chunk[312B] --> chunk[512B] --> chunk[416B] --> NULL
+/// bucket[4] (implicit) --> chunk[1024B] --> chunk[513B] --> NULL
+/// @endcode
+///
+/// Note that added chunks should be aligned to a 4-byte boundary.
