/*
* The dm-array is a persistent version of an array. It packs the data
* more efficiently than a btree which will result in less disk space use,
* and a performance boost. The element get and set operations are still
* O(ln(n)), but with a much smaller constant.
*
* The value type structure is reused from the btree type to support proper
* reference counting of values.
*
* The arrays implicitly know their length, and bounds are checked for
* lookups and updated. It doesn't store this in an accessible place
* because it would waste a whole metadata block. Make sure you store the
* size along with the array root in your encompassing data.
*
* Array entries are indexed via an unsigned integer starting from zero.
* Arrays are not sparse; if you resize an array to have 'n' entries then
* 'n - 1' will be the last valid index.
*
* Typical use:
*
* a) initialise a dm_array_info structure. This describes the array
* values and ties it into a specific transaction manager. It holds no
* instance data; the same info can be used for many similar arrays if
* you wish.
*
* b) Get yourself a root. The root is the index of a block of data on the
* disk that holds a particular instance of an array. You may have a
* pre existing root in your metadata that you wish to use, or you may
* want to create a brand new, empty array with dm_array_empty().
*
* Like the other data structures in this library, dm_array objects are
* immutable between transactions. Update functions will return you the
* root for a _new_ array. If you've incremented the old root, via
* dm_tm_inc(), before calling the update function you may continue to use
* it in parallel with the new root.
*
* c) resize an array with dm_array_resize().
*
* d) Get a value from the array with dm_array_get_value().
*
* e) Set a value in the array with dm_array_set_value().
*
* f) Walk an array of values in index order with dm_array_walk(). More
* efficient than making many calls to dm_array_get_value().
*
* g) Destroy the array with dm_array_del(). This tells the transaction
* manager that you're no longer using this data structure so it can
* recycle it's blocks. (dm_array_dec() would be a better name for it,
* but del is in keeping with dm_btree_del()).
