   the features the host supports. The dynamic manifest generator may refuse to
   (re)generate the dynamic manifest if required features are not found here
   (however hosts SHOULD NOT use this as a discovery mechanism, instead of
   reading the static manifest file). This array must always exist; if a host
   has no features, it MUST pass a single element array containing NULL.

   Fetch a "list" of subject URIs described in the dynamic manifest.

   example, if the plugin library exposes a regular LV2 plugin, it should
   output only a triple like the following:

   <http://www.example.com/plugin/uri> a lv2:Plugin .

   The objects that are elegible for exposure are those that would need to be
   represented by a subject node in a static manifest.

   dynamic manifest generator. The host MUST pass a writable, empty resource to
   this function, and the dynamic manifest generator MUST ONLY perform write
