[PATCH] test: improve resiliency of malloc autotest

[Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com>]

The test case "test_multi_alloc_statistics" was brittle in that it did
some allocations and frees and then checked statistics without
considering the initial state of the malloc heaps. This meant that,
depending on what allocations/frees were done beforehand, the test can
sometimes fail.

We can improve resiliency by running the test using a new malloc heap,
which means it is unaffected by any previous allocations.
