Log:
 Remove the emem slab feature (sl_* functions) completely, replacing it with
 glib memory slices.
 
 - We weren't doing anything with the emem slab that couldn't be done with glib
   slices.
 - Removes a fair bit of code as well as one debugging environment variable.
 - Glib slices are much cache-friendlier and are multi-threading friendly (if
   we ever go there).
 - Allows glib to actually return slices to the OS on occasion. The emem slab
   would hold onto its memory forever which resulted in a great deal of wasted
   memory after closing a large file.
