rq_init, rq_free - create and free RaptorQ contexts

rq_init() creates a new RaptorQ context and sets up the environment.

       F The size of the object to encode.  This must be a positive integer up to 946270874880.

       T  The  symbol  size. This is generally the size of the packet payload we intend to send.  This must be a
       multiple of the Alignment parameter (4).

       Call rq_free(3) when done.

       rq_free() invalidates and frees a RaptorQ context created with rq_init(3)

rq_init() can fail with the following errors:

       ENOMEM Out of memory.  Possibly, the application hit the RLIMIT_AS  or  RLIMIT_DATA  limit  described  in
              getrlimit(2).

       rq_t *rq;
       rq = rq_init(filesize, 1024);

       /* your program here */

       rq_free(rq); /* free context when done */

rq_init() returns a pointer to a rq_t handle.  On error returns NULL and sets errno to ENOMEM.

       The rq_free() function returns no value.
