调研方向

首先审查现有的 unsafe_wrap、unsafe_pointer_to_objref、Base._growend! 和 Base.arrayset! 接口，以及 resize! 用于向量的方式。确定是否可以通过足够通用的接口提供高效的增长、缩小和分配，然后记录具体的范围和实现路径。

描述

The formal interface for working with an array's memory is currently very limited. We mostly just have ways of accessing preallocated memory (e.g., unsafe_wrap and unsafe_pointer_to_objref). The rest of the time we need to rely on methods like push!/pop!/append!/resize to mutate a Vector down the line. Likewise, if we want to allocate memory for a new array we typically need to wrap a new instance of Array.

A couple reasons we this would be good to have here

  1. Performance. The necessity to ensure that memory is safely managed also means that each call to something like resize! has to ensure that we don't create a situation where we are out of bounds. This probably only has minimal overhead in most cases but if we are doing something complicated like merging and or sorting two vectors then we may be calling resize! a lot. I recall this sort of thing coming up a lot when I was trying to work with graph algorithms last year that do a lot of insertion and deletion.
  2. Necessary for creating some interfaces. One of the things that makes the indexing interface so nice is that there are formally defined places for new types to insert and propagate information (e.g., bounds checking). It also makes it easier to optimize indexing. In contrast, Vector directly uses methods that allocate and write to memory (e.g., Base._growend! and Base.arrayset!) while abstract types typically hope that resize! works and then use setindex!.

From where I'm standing it seams like this would be great to have here. The reason this is an issue instead of a PR is mainly because I'm unsure if the implementation for this would be too general or involved for this package. We could always define several methods here like unsafe_grow_end! and unsafe_shrink_end! but these aren't super helpful without implementations that can interact with pointers and references.

@chriselrod, do you think growing/shrinking/allocating memory in an efficient way would require a bunch of LLVM magic or could we do it pretty simply here?
