Revert back stdx.allocator -> std.experimental.allocator ?

[denizzzka]

Looks like allocator is stable now and bug is fixed: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17564

History: Use the stable stdx-allocator DUB package

Looks it is better will be public import allocator headers from vibe-containter?

Sounds like a good idea, it should hopefully be stable enough nowadays and the past breaking changes are outside of our compiler support window.

I've opened vibe-d/vibe.d#2777 and vibe-d/vibe-container#2 to prepare for making the change in vibe-container. Then there just needs to be a basic CI step in vibe-container that compiles the whole of vibe.d to ensure we don't break anything accidentally. Once that is in place, can you re-apply your adjustments there?

Okay vibe.d is now tested in vibe-container and all places now refer to vibe.container.internal.utilallocator: vibe-d/vibe-container#3

Progress:

• Add a ring buffer implementation vibe-container#4
• Fix naming of RingBuffer.pop(Front/Back). vibe-container#5
• Define proper copy semantics for RingBuffer vibe-container#6
• Use vibe.container.internal.allocator #385
• Make AllocaAppender forward compatible with current std.experimental.allocator #388
• Fix buffer growth in AllocAppender #389
• Make the code forward compatible with std.experimental.allocator vibe.d#2782
• Switch back to std.experimental.allocator vibe-container#7

So this requires a lot more changes than anticipated due to the switch to RCIAllocator, but its getting there.
