In various places it is useful to have an array of structures, but allow
it to grow. In some cases we work around it by setting maximum number of
entries, using a Kconfig option. In other places we use a linked list,
which does not provide for random access and can complicate the code.
Introduce a new data structure, which is a variable-sized list of structs
each of the same, pre-set size. It provides O(1) access and is reasonably
efficient at expanding linearly, since it doubles in size when it runs out
of space.
