14  * The dm-array is a persistent version of an array.  It packs the data
15  * more efficiently than a btree which will result in less disk space use,
16  * and a performance boost.  The element get and set operations are still
17  * O(ln(n)), but with a much smaller constant.
18  *
19  * The value type structure is reused from the btree type to support proper
20  * reference counting of values.
21  *
22  * The arrays implicitly know their length, and bounds are checked for
23  * lookups and updated.  It doesn't store this in an accessible place
24  * because it would waste a whole metadata block.  Make sure you store the
25  * size along with the array root in your encompassing data.
26  *
27  * Array entries are indexed via an unsigned integer starting from zero.
28  * Arrays are not sparse; if you resize an array to have 'n' entries then
29  * 'n - 1' will be the last valid index.
30  *
31  * Typical use:
32  *
33  * a) initialise a dm_array_info structure.  This describes the array
34  *    values and ties it into a specific transaction manager.  It holds no
35  *    instance data; the same info can be used for many similar arrays if
36  *    you wish.
37  *
38  * b) Get yourself a root.  The root is the index of a block of data on the
39  *    disk that holds a particular instance of an array.  You may have a
40  *    pre existing root in your metadata that you wish to use, or you may
41  *    want to create a brand new, empty array with dm_array_empty().
42  *
43  * Like the other data structures in this library, dm_array objects are
44  * immutable between transactions.  Update functions will return you the
45  * root for a _new_ array.  If you've incremented the old root, via
46  * dm_tm_inc(), before calling the update function you may continue to use
47  * it in parallel with the new root.
48  *
49  * c) resize an array with dm_array_resize().
50  *
51  * d) Get a value from the array with dm_array_get_value().
52  *
53  * e) Set a value in the array with dm_array_set_value().
54  *
55  * f) Walk an array of values in index order with dm_array_walk().  More
56  *    efficient than making many calls to dm_array_get_value().
57  *
58  * g) Destroy the array with dm_array_del().  This tells the transaction
59  *    manager that you're no longer using this data structure so it can
60  *    recycle it's blocks.  (dm_array_dec() would be a better name for it,
61  *    but del is in keeping with dm_btree_del()).
