[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH luajit] Fix memory probing allocator to check for valid end address, too.

From: Mike Pall <mike>

(cherry-picked from commit 646148e747759f0af3b47f9bd287cedd7e174631)

Before the patch `mmap_probe` only checked if the allocated chunk
start was within the 2^LJ_ALLOC_MBITS bytes region. However, if the
chunk is big enough, its end can reach outside of that region. This
patch adds the corresponding check, to avoid such situations.

Maxim Kokryashkin:
* added the description and the test for the problem
