/**
* The strvec API allows one to dynamically build and store
* NULL-terminated arrays of strings. A strvec maintains the invariant that the
* `v` member always points to a non-NULL array, and that the array is
* always NULL-terminated at the element pointed to by `v[nr]`. This
* makes the result suitable for passing to functions expecting to receive
* argv from main().
*
* The string-list API (documented in string-list.h) is similar, but cannot be
* used for these purposes; instead of storing a straight string pointer,
* it contains an item structure with a `util` field that is not compatible
* with the traditional argv interface.
*
* Each `strvec` manages its own memory. Any strings pushed into the
* array are duplicated, and all memory is freed by strvec_clear().
*/
