/**
    Very simple container class to hold a pointer to some data on the heap.

    When you need to allocate some heap storage for something, always try to use
    this class instead of allocating the memory directly using malloc/free.

    A HeapBlock<char> object can be treated in pretty much exactly the same way
    as an char*, but as long as you allocate it on the stack or as a class member,
    it's almost impossible for it to leak memory.

    It also makes your code much more concise and readable than doing the same thing
    using direct allocations,

    E.g. instead of this:
    @code
        int* temp = (int*) malloc (1024 * sizeof (int));
        memcpy (temp, xyz, 1024 * sizeof (int));
        free (temp);
        temp = (int*) calloc (2048 * sizeof (int));
        temp[0] = 1234;
        memcpy (foobar, temp, 2048 * sizeof (int));
        free (temp);
    @endcode

    ..you could just write this:
    @code
        HeapBlock<int> temp (1024);
        memcpy (temp, xyz, 1024 * sizeof (int));
        temp.calloc (2048);
        temp[0] = 1234;
        memcpy (foobar, temp, 2048 * sizeof (int));
    @endcode

    The class is extremely lightweight, containing only a pointer to the
    data, and exposes malloc/realloc/calloc/free methods that do the same jobs
    as their less object-oriented counterparts. Despite adding safety, you probably
    won't sacrifice any performance by using this in place of normal pointers.
