Wim Taymans a1d7bd02e4 memory improvements
Make the memory object simply manage the data pointer and the maxsize and move
the offset and size handling to common functionality.
Use the READONLY flag to set a readonly lock.
Remove the data and size fields from the unmap method. We need an explicit
resize operation instead of using the unmap function.
Make internal helper lock and unlock functions.
Update unit test and users of the old API.
