Bill Budge 0481b23e25 [Memory] Rewrite platform OS Commit / Uncommit in terms of permissions.
- Eliminates CommitRegion and UncommitRegion methods, replacing them with
  calls to SetPermissions.
- Makes a similar change to the API of VirtualMemory.
- This changes system calls from mmap to mprotect on most POSIX platforms.
