 * 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.
 *
 * \note
 * 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 <b>must not</b> 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.:
 * @code
   sigset_t set;

   signal(SIGCHLD, SIG_DFL);
   sigemptyset(&set);
   sigaddset(&set, SIGPIPE);
   pthread_sigmask(SIG_BLOCK, &set, NULL);
 * @endcode
 *
 * On Microsoft Windows, setting the default DLL directories to SYSTEM32
 * exclusively is strongly recommended for security reasons:
 * @code
   SetDefaultDllDirectories(LOAD_LIBRARY_SEARCH_SYSTEM32);
 * @endcode
 *
 * \version
 * Arguments are meant to be passed from the command line to LibVLC, just like
 * VLC media player does. The list of valid arguments depends on the LibVLC
 * version, the operating system and platform, and set of available LibVLC
 * plugins. Invalid or unsupported arguments will cause the function to fail
 * (i.e. return NULL). Also, some arguments may alter the behaviour or
 * otherwise interfere with other LibVLC functions.
 *
 * \warning
 * There is absolutely no warranty or promise of forward, backward and
 * cross-platform compatibility with regards to libvlc_new() arguments.
 * We recommend that you do not use them, other than when debugging.
