Eugene Kuznetsov 10dfa07e36 Linux: Use huge pages in jemalloc to speed up allocations
Enable huge pages for jemalloc. This requests the Linux kernel to use
huge (2 MB) pages for large allocations. This has the effect of speeding
up first accesses to those allocations, and possibly also speeds up future
accesses by reducing TLB faults.

By default, 4 KB pages are used unless the user enables huge pages through
a kernel parameter or an obscure sysfs setting.

For Cycles benchmarks, this gives about a 5% CPU rendering performance
improvement. It likely also improves performance in other areas of Blender.
