It'd be possible to avoid some of the reallocs this way. We could
realloc once per node rather than once per (node, pin). It does make the
code a bit more complex though, since you have to reserve space up-front
during the one realloc and so have to store separate num_maps and
num_maps_allocated. I'll see how bad it gets, and maybe include it in v3
if it isn't horrible.
