When building some code against mimalloc with C inside Visual Studio
with ClangCL, the compiler complains about __GNUC__ being undefined.

Close#422
SI prefixes [the decimal prefixes] refer strictly to powers of 10. They
should not be used to indicate powers of 2. e.g., one kilobit
represents 1000 bits instead of 1024 bits. IEC 60027‐2 symbols are
formed adding a "i" to the SI symbol (e.g. G + i = Gi).
Android's Bionic libc stores the thread ID in TLS slot 1 instead of 0
on 32-bit ARM and AArch64. Slot 0 contains a pointer to the ELF DTV
(Dynamic Thread Vector) instead, which is constant for each loaded DSO.
Because mimalloc uses the thread ID to determine whether operations are
thread-local or cross-thread (atomic), all threads having the same ID
causes internal data structures to get corrupted quickly when multiple
threads are using the allocator:
mimalloc: assertion failed: at "external/mimalloc/src/page.c":563, mi_page_extend_free
assertion: "page->local_free == NULL"
mimalloc: assertion failed: at "external/mimalloc/src/page.c":74, mi_page_is_valid_init
assertion: "page->used <= page->capacity"
mimalloc: assertion failed: at "external/mimalloc/src/page.c":100, mi_page_is_valid_init
assertion: "page->used + free_count == page->capacity"
mimalloc: assertion failed: at "external/mimalloc/src/page.c":74, mi_page_is_valid_init
assertion: "page->used <= page->capacity"
Add support for Android's alternate TLS layout to fix the crashes in
multi-threaded use cases.
Fixes#376.
