Subject[PATCHv2 net 2/3] flex_array: support flex_array_resize
Date
This function can dynamically change total_nr_elements of a flex_array,
and keep the old elements of the same memory. Returns 0 if it succeeds.

Note that it won't do any memory allocation or shrinking for elements,
which should be only done by flex_array_prealloc and flex_array_shrink.
