Summary:
Eolian adds a per-class BETA guard (like EFL_UI_WIN_BETA) to any method tagged
as @beta. This means that any app (and the EFL code) wanting to use BETA features
has to enable them class by class, which is cumbersome.
This commit replaces the individual guards with the global EFL_BETA_API_SUPPORT
guard, so apps only need to define one symbol to access BETA features.
Any usage of the per-class guards has been removed from the EFL code and examples.
When building EFL the global guard is defined by configure, so all EFL methods
already have access to BETA API.
Efl_Core.h and Efl_Ui.h no longer define EFL_BETA_API_SUPPORT. Apps wanting to
use BETA API have to define this symbol before including any EFL header
(It has been added to the examples requiring it).
Test Plan:
make && make check && make examples still work, but there's a lot less #defines
in the code

Until this commit eo did class functions as part of the vtable, which
enabled those functions to be overwritten in classes inheriting another
class. However in task T7675 we decided that this is not really good for
bindings, as most OOP languages do not support this sort of feature.
After this commit eolian realizes class function completly outside of
the vtable, the c-symbol that is the class funciton is now just directly
redirecting to a implementation, without the involvement of the vtable.
This also means a change to the syntax created by eo:
Calling before:
class_function(CLASS_A);
Calling after:
class_function();
Implementation before:
class_function(const Eo *obj, void *pd) { ... }
Implementation after:
class_function(void) { ... }
This fixes T7675.

This reverts commit 2fb5cc3ad0.
Most of this change where wrong as they didn't affect the destruction
of the object. efl_add_ref allow for manual handling of the lifecycle
of the object and make sure it is still alive during destructor. efl_add
will not allow you to access an object after invalidate also efl.parent.get
will always return NULL once the object is invalidated.
