+   Allocate an array of 'rows' rows of 'cols' columns each, with each
+   element 'size' bytes.
+
+   We use the C multidimensional array paradigm:  The array is a row
+   index (array of pointers to rows) plus an array of elements for each
+   of those rows.  So a[row][col] gives you the element of the two
+   dimensional array at Row 'row', Column 'col'.
+
+   Each array element is ideally aligned to an 'elementSize' boundary.
+   But we guarantee this only for 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16, due to limitations of
+   libc malloc() (which we use to allocate all the memory).
+
+   We tack on two extra elements to the end of the row index, transparent to
+   the user, for use in memory management (in particular, in destroying the
+   array).  The first is a NULL pointer, so you can tell the vertical
+   dimension of the array.  The second points to the row heap (see below).
+
+   We have two ways of allocating the space: fragmented and unfragmented.  In
+   both, the row index (plus the extra elements) is in one block of memory.
+   In the fragmented format, each row is also in an independent memory block,
+   and the row heap pointer (see above) is NULL.  In the unfragmented format,
+   all the rows are in a single block of memory called the row heap and the
+   row heap pointer points to that.
+
+   We use unfragmented format if possible, but if the allocation of the
+   row heap fails, we fall back to fragmented.
