/**
 * @file
 * @brief Header file that contains macros used to replace malloc/calloc and free.
 * @details
 * Macros malloc, calloc and free respectively calls malloc_dbg, calloc_dbg and free_dbg.
 * malloc_dbg and calloc_dbg allocates memory using the "real" malloc and calloc and store
 * the pointer returned (with additional informations) in a linked list.
 * Thanks to this linked list, it is possible to check memory leaks.
