So this one interacts badly with my FLEXPTR suggestion.

I guess it provides most of the benefit that FLEXPTR would, because
we're getting both the entries and the strings from the mempool. Which
really ends up being an almost identical memory layout, since the
mempool presumably just gives you the N bytes for the string right after
the last thing you allocated, which would be the struct.

The only downside is that if you don't want to use the mempool (e.g.,
because you might actually strmap_remove() things), you don't get the
advantage.

I think we could fall back to a FLEXPTR when there's no mempool (or even
when there is, though you'd be on your own to reimplement the
computation parts of FLEXPTR_ALLOC). I'm not sure how ugly it would end
up.

I haven't used our mem_pool before, but the code all looks quite
straightforward to me. I guess the caller is responsible for
de-allocating the mempool, which makes sense. It would be nice to see
real numbers on how much this helps, but again, you might not have the
commits in the right order to easily find out.
