Statement (triple) reporting handler function.

This handler function set with `raptor_parser_set_statement_handler()` on a parser receives statements as the parsing proceeds. The `statement` argument to the handler is shared and must be copied by the caller with `raptor_statement_copy()`.

`user_data` : | user data
`statement` : | statement to report

### raptor_snprintf ()

    int                 raptor_snprintf                     (char *buffer,

                                                             ...);

Format output into an allocated sized buffer

This provides a portable version `snprintf()` over variants on different systems.

If `buffer` is NULL, calculates the number of bytes needed to allocate for buffer and do no formatting.

`buffer` : | buffer (or NULL)
`size` : | bufer size (or 0)
`format` : | printf-style format string
`...` : | format arguments
Returns : | number of bytes allocated (excluding NUL) or 0 on failure

Format output into a new buffer and return it

This is a wrapper around the (GNU) vasprintf function that is not always avaiable.

`ret` : | pointer to store buffer
`format` : | printf-style format string
`arguments` : | format arguments list
Returns : | number of bytes allocated (excluding NUL) or < 0 on failure

### raptor_vsnprintf ()

    char *              raptor_vsnprintf                    (const char *format,
                                                             va_list arguments);

Format output for a variable arguments list into a newly allocated buffer

`Deprecated`: This does not actually conform to vsnprintf's calling convention and does not return the allocated buffer length. Use `raptor_vsnprintf2()` or `raptor_vasprintf()` instead.

`format` : | printf-style format string
`arguments` : | variable arguments list
Returns : | a newly allocated string as the formatted result or NULL on failure

### raptor_vsnprintf2 ()

    int                 raptor_vsnprintf2                   (char *buffer,
                                                             size_t size,
                                                             const char *format,
                                                             va_list arguments);

Format output for a variable arguments list into an allocated sized buffer.

This is a wrapper around system versions of vsnprintf with different call and return conventions.

If `buffer` is NULL or size is 0 or the buffer size is too small, returns the number of bytes that would be needed for buffer

`buffer` : | buffer (or NULL)
`size` : | size of buffer (or 0)
`format` : | printf-style format string
`arguments` : | variable arguments list
Returns : | number of bytes allocated (excluding NUL) or <0 on failure
