feat(memtrack): support disabling allocator tracking

[not-matthias]

What

memtrack track --track-allocators (default on, env CODSPEED_TRACK_ALLOCATORS). When disabled, memtrack skips the allocator uprobe machinery and only emits coarse mmap/munmap/brk events.

Why

Allocation-heavy programs (e.g. a Rust build) generate an overwhelming number of malloc/free events, and the per-allocation uprobes slow the target significantly. This trades allocation granularity for lower overhead while still collecting RSS-relevant memory events.

How

• mmap/munmap/brk syscall tracepoints are now always attached in a memory run.
• With the flag off, the exec watcher and allocator attach worker are never started.
• No runner CLI flag: the env var is inherited by the memtrack subprocess, keeping the runner decoupled from the installed memtrack version.

Greptile Summary

Adds configurable allocator tracking alongside expanded RSS accounting.

• Adds --track-allocators support and conditionally disables allocator uprobes while retaining coarse memory events.
• Adds eBPF RSS, reverse-mapping, and process-lifecycle event collection.
• Extends shared memtrack event schemas and reconstruction logic for the new event types.
• Adds architecture-matrix CI coverage and RSS integration fixtures and snapshots.

Confidence Score: 5/5

The PR appears safe to merge because no blocking failures remain within the follow-up review scope.

I'm not sure what's really the usecase of this? olgtm but I'm not sure we've discussed
