/* If P is null, allocate a block of at least *PN such objects;
otherwise, reallocate P so that it contains more than *PN objects
each of S bytes. *PN must be nonzero unless P is null, and S must
be nonzero. Set *PN to the new number of objects, and return the
pointer to the new block. *PN is never set to zero, and the
returned pointer is never null.
Repeated reallocations are guaranteed to make progress, either by
allocating an initial block with a nonzero size, or by allocating a
larger block.
In the following implementation, nonzero sizes are increased by a
factor of approximately 1.5 so that repeated reallocations have
O(N) overall cost rather than O(N**2) cost, but the
specification for this function does not guarantee that rate.
Here is an example of use:
int *p = NULL;
size_t used = 0;
size_t allocated = 0;
void
append_int (int value)
{
if (used == allocated)
p = x2nrealloc (p, &allocated, sizeof *p);
p[used++] = value;
}
This causes x2nrealloc to allocate a block of some nonzero size the
first time it is called.
To have finer-grained control over the initial size, set *PN to a
nonzero value before calling this function with P == NULL. For
example:
int *p = NULL;
size_t used = 0;
size_t allocated = 0;
size_t allocated1 = 1000;
void
append_int (int value)
{
if (used == allocated)
{
p = x2nrealloc (p, &allocated1, sizeof *p);
allocated = allocated1;
}
p[used++] = value;
}
*/

size_t n = *pn;

/* The approximate size to use for initial small allocation
