Update the MemoryManager API so it can be used in conjunction with NIO to
provide efficient buffer management

Key: DIRECTMEMORY-37
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRECTMEMORY-37
Project: Apache DirectMemory
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Hiram Chirino
If MemoryManager implemented something like a ByteBuffer allocate(int size)
then I could be used to directly transfer data to/from Files and Sockets
without having to first copy them to a byte[].
I'm not talking about using the ByteBuffer.allocate call. I'm talking about
adding a method to MemoryManager:
ByteBuffer bb = MemoryManager.allocate(1024*1024);
So that I can directly modify the ByteBuffer using Channels to avoid a memory
copy.. Compare this to using the MemoryManager store, update, and retrieve
calls. They all force you to work with byte[]s so you end up doing a memory
copies into and out of direct memory.
