/** @page pg_kAvlTmpl   Template Configuration.
 *
 *  This is a templated implementation of AVL trees in C. The template
 *  parameters relates to the kind of key used and how duplicates are
 *  treated.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_EQUAL_ALLOWED
 *  Define this to tell us that equal keys are allowed.
 *  Then Equal keys will be put in a list pointed to by KAVLNODE::pList.
 *  This is by default not defined.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_CHECK_FOR_EQUAL_INSERT
 *  Define this to enable insert check for equal nodes.
 *  This is by default not defined.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_MAX_STACK
 *  Use this to specify the max number of stack entries the stack will use when
 *  inserting and removing nodes from the tree. The size should be something like
 *      log2(<max nodes>) + 3
 *  Must be defined.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_RANGE
 *  Define this to enable key ranges.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_OFFSET
 *  Define this to link the tree together using self relative offset
 *  instead of memory pointers, thus making the entire tree relocatable
 *  provided all the nodes - including the root node variable - are moved
 *  the exact same distance.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_LOOKTHRU
 *  Define this to employ a lookthru cache (direct) to speed up lookup for
 *  some usage patterns. The value should be the number of members of the
 *   array.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_LOOKTHRU_HASH(Key)
 *  Define this to specify a more efficient translation of the key into
 *  a lookthru array index. The default is key % size.
 *  For some key types this is required as the default will not compile.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_LOCKED
 *  Define this if you wish for the tree to be locked via the
 *  KAVL_WRITE_LOCK,  KAVL_WRITE_UNLOCK, KAVL_READ_LOCK and
 *  KAVL_READ_UNLOCK macros. If not defined the tree will not be subject
 *  do any kind of locking and the problem of concurrency is left the user.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_WRITE_LOCK(pRoot)
 *  Lock the tree for writing.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_WRITE_UNLOCK(pRoot)
 *  Counteracts KAVL_WRITE_LOCK.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_READ_LOCK(pRoot)
 *  Lock the tree for reading.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_READ_UNLOCK(pRoot)
 *  Counteracts KAVL_READ_LOCK.
 *
 *  \#define KAVLKEY
 *  Define this to the name of the AVL key type.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_STD_KEY_COMP
 *  Define this to use the standard key compare macros. If not set all the
 *  compare operations for KAVLKEY have to be defined: KAVL_G, KAVL_E, KAVL_NE,
 *  KAVL_R_IS_IDENTICAL, KAVL_R_IS_INTERSECTING and KAVL_R_IS_IN_RANGE. The
 *  latter three are only required when KAVL_RANGE is defined.
 *
 *  \#define KAVLNODE
 *  Define this to the name (typedef) of the AVL node structure. This
 *  structure must have a mpLeft, mpRight, mKey and mHeight member.
 *  If KAVL_RANGE is defined a mKeyLast is also required.
 *  If KAVL_EQUAL_ALLOWED is defined a mpList member is required.
 *  It's possible to use other member names by redefining the names.
 *
 *  \#define KAVLTREEPTR
 *  Define this to the name (typedef) of the tree pointer type. This is
 *  required when KAVL_OFFSET is defined. When not defined it defaults
 *  to KAVLNODE *.
 *
 *  \#define KAVLROOT
 *  Define this to the name (typedef) of the AVL root structure. This
 *  is optional. However, if specified it must at least have a mpRoot
 *  member of KAVLTREEPTR type. If KAVL_LOOKTHRU is non-zero a
 *  maLookthru[KAVL_LOOKTHRU] member of the KAVLTREEPTR type is also
 *  required.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_FN
 *  Use this to alter the names of the AVL functions.
 *  Must be defined.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_TYPE(prefix, name)
 *  Use this to make external type names and unique. The prefix may be empty.
 *  Must be defined.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_INT(name)
 *  Use this to make internal type names and unique. The prefix may be empty.
 *  Must be defined.
 *
 *  \#define KAVL_DECL(rettype)
 *  Function declaration macro that should be set according to the scope
 *  the instantiated template should have. For instance an inlined scope
 *  (private or public) should K_DECL_INLINE(rettype) here.
 *
 *  This version of the kAVL tree offers the option of inlining the entire
 *  implementation. This depends on the compiler doing a decent job in both
 *  making use of the inlined code and to eliminate const variables.
