	 * Implementation of an object format that garbage collectors may use. Supports storing regular
	 * objects (described by a GcType), code objects, forward objects, and padding objects with one
	 * pointer overhead. Also supports padding around object to verify that no memory is being
	 * overwritten unintentionally.
	 *
	 * Everything required is implemented in this header, so that the compiler is likely to inline
	 * as much as possible.
	 *
	 * One pointer stored directly in front of an object stores the type of the object. This always
	 * refers to a fmt::Type struct that describes the kind of object. This may point to one of
	 * several pre-allocated Type instances when the object is a forwarding object or a padding
	 * object.
	 *
	 * To differentiate between base-pointers (pointers to the beginning of the actual allocation)
	 * and client pointers (seen by the rest of Storm), we always pass base pointers as fmt::Obj *
	 * and client pointers as void *. Furthermore, functions taking fmt::Obj * generally start with
	 * 'objXxx' while the corresponding functions for client pointers do not start with 'obj'.
	 *
	 * Objects are always at least word-aligned. GcType objects, or other objects containing
	 * metadata, need to be aligned at an 8 byte boundary.
	 *
	 * The function 'init' checks the assumptions made by this object format with assertions.
