/**
 * @file
 *
 * @brief linked lists containing pointers to data, with the ability
 * to iterate over the list in both directions.
 *
 * Each element in the list contains a piece of data, together with
 * pointers which link to the previous and next elements in the
 * list. Using these pointers it is possible to move through the list
 * in both directions (unlike the linked-list which only allows
 * movement through the list in the forward direction).
 *
 * @code
 * // Create a doubly linked list ("alpha" <=> "bravo" <=> "charlie")
 * dlist_element *alpha = create_dlist();
 * dlist_element *bravo = insert_after_dlist( alpha, "bravo" );
 * dlist_element *charlie = insert_after_dlist( bravo, "charlie" );
 *
 * // Find element "charlie" from the list
 * find_element( alpha, "charlie" ); // => charlie
 * find_element( alpha, "delta" ); // => NULL
 *
 * // Delete element "bravo" from the list
 * delete_dlist_element( bravo ); // => true
 *
 * // Delete entire list
 * delete_dlist( alpha );
 * @endcode
