> It looks like the {{realloc}} call actually happens via {{glib}}; is this a 
> one-time type registration that isn't expected to be cleaned up until the 
> process exits? (I couldn't find a reference to 
> {{garrow_schema_get_type_once}} in the {{arrow}} code.) I wanted to be 
> certain, since I expect to use {{arrow-glib}} within a long-running process.
