// =============== Block ====================================================================================
 
//  This is a block of memory that doles out record-sized chunks when a table asks for them.
//  It inherits from ndarray::Manager so we can return ndarrays that refer to the memory in the
//  block with correct reference counting (ndarray::Manager is just an empty base class with an
//  internal reference count - it's like a shared_ptr without the pointer and template parameter.
//
//  Records are allocated in Blocks for two reasons:
//    - it allows tables to be either totally contiguous in memory (enabling column views) or
//      not (enabling dynamic addition of records) all in one class.
//    - it saves us from ever having to reallocate all the records associated with a table
//      when we run out of space (that's what a std::vector-like model would require).  This keeps
//      records and/or iterators to them from being invalidated, and it keeps tables from having
//      to track all the records whose data it owns.
