Release the managed memory and reset this proctor to manage the specified `nbytes` bytes at the specified `p` address. Optionally specify the `alignment` used to allocate `p`. If `p` is null, then the proctor is disengaged (manages no memory). The behavior is undefined unless `p` is null or was allocated with a size of `nbytes` and alignment of `alignment` from the same allocator used to construct this proctor. Note that the previously managed block is not deallocated.
