(**
 * Create and initialize a libvlc instance.
 * This functions accept a list of "command line" arguments similar to the
 * main(). These arguments affect the LibVLC instance default configuration.
 *
 * LibVLC may create threads. Therefore, any thread-unsafe process
 * initialization must be performed before calling libvlc_new(). In particular
 * and where applicable:
 * - setlocale() and textdomain(),
 * - setenv(), unsetenv() and putenv(),
 * - with the X11 display system, XInitThreads()
 *   (see also libvlc_media_player_set_xwindow()) and
 * - on Microsoft Windows, SetErrorMode().
 * - sigprocmask() shall never be invoked; pthread_sigmask() can be used.
 *
 * On POSIX systems, the SIGCHLD signal MUST be ignored, i.e. the
 * signal handler must set to SIG_DFL or a function pointer, not SIG_IGN.
 * Also while LibVLC is active, the wait() function shall not be called, and
 * any call to waitpid() shall use a strictly positive value for the first
 * parameter (i.e. the PID). Failure to follow those rules may lead to a
 * deadlock or a busy loop.
 * Also on POSIX systems, it is recommended that the SIGPIPE signal be blocked,
 * even if it is not, in principles, necessary, e.g.:

   sigset_t set;

   signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_DFL);
   sigemptyset(&set);
   sigaddset(&set, SIGPIPE);
   pthread_sigmask(SIG_BLOCK, &set, NULL);

 *
 * On Microsoft Windows Vista/2008, the process error mode
 * SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS flag MUST be set before using LibVLC.
 * On later versions, that is optional and unnecessary.
 * Also on Microsoft Windows (Vista and any later version), setting the default
 * DLL directories to SYSTEM32 exclusively is strongly recommended for
 * security reasons:

   SetErrorMode(SEM_FAILCRITICALERRORS);
   SetDefaultDllDirectories(LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_SYSTEM32);

 *
 * Arguments are meant to be passed from the command line to LibVLC, just like

 * (i.e. return NULL). Also, some arguments may alter the behaviour or
 * otherwise interfere with other LibVLC functions.

 * cross-platform compatibility with regards to libvlc_new() arguments.

(* fmt format strings

http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/Berlin/en/Format_Specifiers_in_C/C%2B%2B

Format Specifiers in C/C++

d, i - Decimal or integer. The argument must be an integer value. The value is converted to a string of decimal digits.
       If the format string contains a precision specifier, it indicates that the resulting string must contain at least
       the specified number of digits; if the value has less digits, the resulting string is left-padded with zeros.
u    - Unsigned int. Similar to "d" and "i", but it has no sign.
o    - Octal. The argument must be an integer value. The value is converted to a string of octal digits.
       If the format string contains a precision specifier, it indicates that the resulting string must contain at least
       the specified number of digits; if the value has less digits, the resulting string is left-padded with zeros.
x,X  - Hexadecimal. The argument must be an integer value. The value is converted to a string of decimal digits.
       If the format string contains a precision specifier, it indicates that the resulting string must contain at least
       the specified number of digits; if the value has less digits, the resulting string is left-padded with zeros.
f    - Floating point. The argument must be a floating-point value. The value is converted to a string of the form "-ddd.ddd...".
       The resulting string starts with a minus sign if the number is negative. The number of digits after the decimal point is given by
       the precision specifier in the format string; a default of 2 decimal digits is assumed if no precision specifier is present.
e    - Scientific. The argument must be a floating-point value. The value is converted to a string of the form "-d.ddd...E+ddd".
       The resulting string starts with a minus sign if the number is negative. One digit always precedes the decimal point.
       The total number of digits in the resulting string (including the one before the decimal point) is given by the precision specifier
       in the format string; a default precision of 15 is assumed if no precision specifier is present. The "E" exponent character
       in the resulting string is always followed by a plus or minus sign and at least 3 digits.
g    - Double. The argument must be a floating-point value. The value is converted to the shortest possible decimal string using fixed or scientific format.
       The number of significant digits in the resulting string is given by the precision specifier in the format string;
       a default precision of 15 is assumed if no precision specifier is present. Trailing zeros are removed from the resulting string, and a decimal point
       appears only if necessary. The resulting string uses fixed point format if the number of digits to the left of the decimal point in the value is less
       than or equal to the specified precision, and if the value is greater than or equal to 0.00001. Otherwise the resulting string uses scientific format.
c    - Character. The argument must be a single character value.
s    - String. The argument must be a character, a string, or a char* value. The string or character is inserted in place of the format specifier.
       The precision specifier, if present in the format string, specifies the maximum length of the resulting string. If the argument is a string
       that is longer than this maximum, the string is truncated.
n    - Pointer to int. Stores (in the location pointed to by the input argument) a count of the chars written so far.
p    - Pointer. Prints the input argument as a pointer; format depends on which memory model was used. It will be either XXXX:YYYY or YYYY (offset only).
