Seems to fit the goroutine model well: initialize the arena at goroutine start, destroy it on goroutine end (I assume this happens automatically when it falls out of scope). Like Erlang's process-specific GC.
It would be nice for some debug/testing mechanism (akin to -race, or zig's detectLeaks) to proactively verify nothing has outlived the arena.
