Hi,

In preparation for removing the "silently change allocation size"
users of ksize(), explicitly round up all q_vector allocations so that
allocations can be correctly compared to ksize().

Before that, fix a potential Use After Free under memory pressure.

Thanks,

-Kees

v3; split UAF fix from bucket rounding.
