+/* prick_vec.h: A dynamically sized array with SBO.
+ * Created: 2026-01-22
+ * Author: Aryadev Chavali
+ * License: See end of file
+ * Commentary:
+
+ To utilise this library, please put:
+    #define PRICK_VEC_IMPL
+    #include "prick_vec.h"
+ in one of your code units.
+
+ This library defines another form of dynamically sized array as opposed to
+ prick_darr.h.  This one is closer to the one classically implemented by most; a
+ structure with some metadata and a pointer to the raw buffer.  This way,
+ pointers to the dynamic array are stable (as the structure itself is never
+ reallocated) and the array can still grow as required.
+
+ We use a trick, called Small Buffer Optimisation (SBO), to inline elements
+ directly into the structure when there are a small number of them (see
+ PRICK_VEC_INLINE_CAPACITY).  This makes lookup _even faster_ (no derefence and
+ possibility of the entire vector existing in the CPU cache) and allows us to
+ avoid allocation for smaller use cases.  If the number of elements exceeds
+ PRICK_VEC_INLINE_CAPACITY, we utilise the allocator.
