/**
 * @file safeguards.h A number of safeguards to prevent using unsafe methods.
 *
 * Unsafe methods are, for example, strndup and strncpy because they may leave the
 * string without a null termination, but also strdup and strndup because they can
 * return nullptr and then all strdups would need to be guarded against that instead
 * of using the current MallocT/ReallocT/CallocT technique of just giving the user
 * an error that too much memory was used instead of spreading that code though
 * the whole code base.
