_PyObject_DebugRealloc(): rewritten to let the underlying realloc do
most of the work. In particular, if the underlying realloc is able to grow the memory block in place, great (this routine used to do a fresh malloc + memcpy every time a block grew). BTW, I'm not so keen here on avoiding possible quadratic-time realloc patterns as I am on making the debug pymalloc more invisible (the more it uses memory "just like" the underlying allocator, the better the chance that a suspected memory corruption bug won't vanish when the debug malloc is turned on).
