One more point. Writing into memory could be implemented.
but the problem is what to do if the amount written is larger
than the block of memory. There are two obvious solutions:
1. have the netcdf-c library generate an NC_ENOMEM (out of memory)
   error, or some other error.
2. Don't have the user specify the memory, but rather have the
   netcdf-c library allocate and (when necessary) extend the memory
   and at nc_close, make it possible for the user to get the final
   memory block.
