Add support for host pointer #3

Description

@GoogleCodeExporter
We want to optionally be able to have alloc just map to an existing host 
pointer via CL_MEM_USE_HOST_PTR. This will be an optimization for OpenCL 
kernels running on the CPU or a shared memory architecture like AMD Fusion.

Basically, we should change

static cl_int alloc(size_t bytes, cl_mem* gpuBuffer);

to

static cl_int alloc(size_t bytes, cl_mem* gpuBuffer, void* hostPointer = NULL);

and add logic to set CL_MEM_USE_HOST_PTR when hostPointer is not NULL.
