/**
* @addtogroup lavu_mem
* Utilities for manipulating memory.
*
* FFmpeg has several applications of memory that are not required of a typical
* program. For example, the computing-heavy components like video decoding and
* encoding can be sped up significantly through the use of aligned memory.
*
* However, for each of FFmpeg's applications of memory, there might not be a
* recognized or standardized API for that specific use. Memory alignment, for
* instance, varies wildly depending on operating systems, architectures, and
* compilers. Hence, this component of @ref libavutil is created to make
* dealing with memory consistently possible on all platforms.

*
* Utilities to make an array grow when needed.
*
* Sometimes, the programmer would want to have an array that can grow when
* needed. The libavutil dynamic array utilities fill that need.
*
* libavutil supports two systems of appending elements onto a dynamically
* allocated array, the first one storing the pointer to the value in the
* array, and the second storing the value directly. In both systems, the
* caller is responsible for maintaining a variable containing the length of
* the array, as well as freeing of the array after use.
*
* The first system stores pointers to values in a block of dynamically
* allocated memory. Since only pointers are stored, the function does not need
* to know the size of the type. Both av_dynarray_add() and
* av_dynarray_add_nofree() implement this system.
*
* @code
* type **array = NULL; //< an array of pointers to values
* int    nb    = 0;    //< a variable to keep track of the length of the array
*
* type to_be_added  = ...;
