// Returns a `Vec<T>` with a size in bytes at least as large as `size_in_bytes`.
// The kvm API has many structs that resemble the following `Foo` structure:
//
// ```
// #[repr(C)]
// struct Foo {
// some_data: u32
// entries: __IncompleteArrayField<__u32>,
// }
// ```
//
// In order to allocate such a structure, `size_of::<Foo>()` would be too small because it would not
// include any space for `entries`. To make the allocation large enough while still being aligned
// for `Foo`, a `Vec<Foo>` is created. Only the first element of `Vec<Foo>` would actually be used
// as a `Foo`. The remaining memory in the `Vec<Foo>` is for `entries`, which must be contiguous
// with `Foo`. This function is used to make the `Vec<Foo>` with enough space for `count` entries.
