[Vm-dev] [OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm] Insufficient Object Memory: Building on Alpine (#519)

[IcedQuinn]

Building via mvm scripts results in a VM that segfaults when attempting to load a Pharo 8 image.
Building via cmake requires some tweaks to compile (for example, SDL had to be told not to build Wayland support due to symbol duplication bugs) as well as adding `-Wl,--whole-archive /usr/lib/libexecinfo.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive` to the linker flags.
The compiled virtual machine results in a primitive failed exception and the VM is unusably slow.

`pharo` script must be modified to point the platform library path to `/lib` where libmusl lives.
cap flag has to be set to get around scheduling error `setcap cap_sys_nice=eip lib/pharo/pharo`

The error: `PrimitiveFailed: primitive #'insufficient object memory' in File class failed`
VM brand: `phcogspurlinuxspurmhdlssdl264+sdl2`
