mdex_add, mdex_addfile, mdex_alias - index data, files and directories

       The  mdex_add  function builds a merkle tree from data with length len and adds entries for both the tree
       and chunks to mdex.

       The mdex_addfile function builds a merkle tree from the file or directory at path and  adds  entries  for
       the trees and chunks to mdex.

       The  mdex_alias  function adds an entry alias of length aliaslen which points to the entry hash of length
       hashlen which must already exist in mdex.

       If q is not NULL, it must point to a queue q_t structure previously  initialized  with  q_init(3).   This
       will  be passed through to mtree_build(3) to build the merkle tree.  This is normally used in conjunction
       with a threadpool created with q_pool_create(3) with threads all calling q_job_seek(3).

       The flags argument is the bitwise OR of zero of more of the following flags:

       MDEX_ALIAS
              Entry is a pointer to another entry.

       MDEX_RAND Entry should be sent using random symbols.

       MDEX_RECURSE Recursively index all files and directories below path.  (mdex_addfile)

       MDEX_MOUNT If set, stay within the same filesystem (i.e., do not cross mount points).

       MDEX_SYMLINK
              Follow symbolic links when recursively indexing.

EINVAL Invalid argument. Both mdex and hash are required (not NULL), and hashlen > 0.

       ENOMEM Not enough space/cannot allocate memory (POSIX.1-2001).

       Librecast library (liblibrecast, -llibrecast)

       mdex_add, mdex_addfile, mdex_alias - index data, files and directories

       These function return zero on success.  On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the error.
