* \brief Allocates and initializes a new lzma_memlimit structure
*
* It is easy to make liblzma to use huge amounts of memory. This can
* be a problem especially with the decoder, since it a file requiring
* huge amounts of memory to uncompress could allow even a denial of
* service attack if the memory usage wasn't limited.
*
* liblzma provides a set of functions to control memory usage. Pointers
* to these functions can be used in lzma_allocator structure, which makes
* it easy to limit memory usage with liblzma.
*
* The memory limitter functions are not tied to limitting memory usage
* with liblzma itself. You can use them with anything you like.
*
* In multi-threaded applications, only one thread at once may use the same
* lzma_memlimit structure. If there is a need, this limitation may
* be removed in future versions without breaking the libary API/ABI.
*
* \param limit Initial memory usage limit in bytes
*
* \return Pointer to allocated and initialized lzma_memlimit
* structure. On error, NULL is returned. The reason behind
* an error is either that malloc() failed or that the given
* limit was so small that it didn't allow allocating even
* the lzma_memlimit structure itself.
*
* \note Excluding lzma_memlimit_usage(), the functions whose name begin
* lzma_memlimit_ can be used even if lzma_init() hasn't been
* called.
