Return the memory block at the specified `address` back to this allocator. If `address` is 0, this function has no effect. Otherwise, if the memory at `address` is consistent with being allocated from this test allocator, deallocate it using the underlying allocator and delete it from the data structures keeping track of blocks in use'. If `address` is not zero and is not the address of a block allocated with this allocator (or if it is being deallocated a second time), write an error message and call the failure handler.
