Also document this flag. Currently dynamically sized arrays are limited to one dimensional arrays, but that might change in the future if there is a need for it. The initial use-case of dynamic arrays are stateless codecs. A frame can be divided in many slices, so you want to provide an array containing slice information for each slice. Typically the number of slices is small, but the standard allow for hundreds or thousands of slices. Dynamic arrays are a good solution since sizing the array for the worst case would waste substantial amounts of memory.
