@par Initialization of Helium version
- For Helium version the array of coefficients must be a multiple of 16 even if less
- then 16 coefficients are used. The additional coefficients must be set to 0.
- It does not mean that all the coefficients will be used in the filter (numTaps
- is still set to its right value in the init function.) It just means that
+ For Helium version the array of coefficients must be padded with zero to contain
+ a full number of lanes.
+
+ The array length L must be a multiple of x. L = x * a :
+ - x is 4 for f32
+ - x is 4 for q31
+ - x is 4 for f16 (so managed like the f32 version and not like the q15 one)
+ - x is 8 for q15
+ - x is 16 for q7
+
+ The additional coefficients
+ (x * a - numTaps) must be set to 0.
+ numTaps is still set to its right value in the init function. It means that
the implementation may require to read more coefficients due to the vectorization and
to avoid having to manage too many different cases in the code.

@par Helium state buffer
The state buffer must contain some additional temporary data
used during the computation but which is not the state of the FIR.
