/* PasswordRAMStore
*
* Memory only store of passwords and passphrases. Works like an associative array with
* a unique key used to identify each password. Passwords are C strings which are stored
* in a block of the process' virtual memory locked into RAM. Looked up pointers to
* passwords are valid at least until the next time the store is modified by an insert or
* erase call. Passwords are wiped from memory when no longer wanted.
*
* Recommend using LUKS UUIDs as the key when storing LUKS passphrases.
