Real commit is in 3e347e5, need to get a new baseline first to avoid conflicts. This can be reviewed but it will need a rebase before final merging. |

Using void* instead of uint32* here makes the interface easier to use and may avoid some nuisance alignment warnings.

Describe the contribution
Use a generic
void*as the interface type for the pool buffer pointers. This reduces the need for local type casting in the apps and makes it generally easier to use.Fixes #1021
Testing performed
Build and sanity test CFE
Run all unit tests
Expected behavior changes
No impact to behavior.
System(s) tested on
Ubuntu 20.04
Additional context
Note that getting a buffer in one step still requires a type cast, as the interface here is really
void**. However when putting or querying a buffer no cast is needed. One can also avoid the need to cast if they get a buffer in two steps (i.e. get asvoid*first, then convert to real type with a simple assignment.Contributor Info - All information REQUIRED for consideration of pull request
