/** These are the functions used to register a library's memory cleanup
* functions. Each library should define a single library register function
* to call this API. In the i18n library, it is ucln_i18n_registerCleanup().
*
* None of the cleanup functions should use a mutex to clean up an API's
* allocated memory because a cleanup function is not meant to be thread safe,
* and plenty of data cannot be reference counted in order to make sure that
* no one else needs the allocated data.
*
* In order to make a cleanup function get called when u_cleanup is called,
* You should add your function to the library specific cleanup function.
* If the cleanup function is not in the common library, the code that
* allocates the memory should call the library specific cleanup function.
* For instance, in the i18n library, any memory allocated statically must
* call ucln_i18n_registerCleanup() from the ucln_in.h header. These library
* cleanup functions are needed in order to prevent a circular dependency
* between the common library and any other library.
*
* The order of the cleanup is very important. In general, an API that
* depends on a second API should be cleaned up before the second API.
* For instance, the default converter in ustring depends upon the converter
* API. So the default converter should be closed before the converter API
* has its cache flushed. This will prevent any memory leaks due to
* reference counting.
*
* Please see common/ucln_cmn.{h,c} and i18n/ucln_in.{h,c} for examples.
