* \defgroup heapmem heapmem: Dynamic heap memory allocator
*
* The heapmem module is a dynamic heap memory allocator similar to
* malloc() in standard C. The heap memory is managed in a block of
* static memory, whose size is determined at compile-time by setting
* HEAPMEM_CONF_ARENA_SIZE parameter. By default, the heap memory is
* only 1 bytes, which entails that this parameter must be set
* explicitly in order to be possible to use this module.
*
* Each allocated memory object is referred to as a "chunk". The
* allocator manages free chunks in a double-linked list. While this
* adds some memory overhead compared to a single-linked list, it
* improves the performance of list management.
*
* Internally, allocated chunks can be retrieved using the pointer to
* the allocated memory returned by heapmem_alloc() and
* heapmem_realloc(), because the chunk structure immediately precedes
* the memory of the chunk.
*
* \note This module does not contain a corresponding function to the
* standard C function calloc().
*
* \note Dynamic memory should be used carefully on
* memory-constrained, embedded systems, because fragmentation
* may be induced through various allocation/deallocation
* patterns, and no guarantees are given regarding the
* availability of memory.
*
