We use the name GWP-ASan, even though it's "technically neither GWP nor ASan", but because it describes well what the outcome is (sampled allocations with memory detection capabilities). It also mirrors the name used for the identical mechanism implemented in Chromium <https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/components/gwp_asan>.
