...allocated buffers, however the try decode routines make use of realloc and do not fit well into this model. Introduce a concept of an external memory block to the memory pool and provide an interface to register such memory. The mmap_ptr and mmap_len fields of the memblock tracking struct lose their mmap_ prefix since they are now also used for external memory blocks.
