As in the previous commit explained, we want to get rid of class
functions in eo, and make them just c functions right away.
This commit removes the class parameter from the eo_class_function_set
call, and adjusts the tests to not depend on class functions anymore.
Class functions are now not tested anymore, tests that used them as a
way to test *things* are adjusted to test them now with object
functions, tests that just tested the working of class functions are
dropped.
This fixes T7675.

this enables an app or a platform to add an override for a given class,
then return a different object when that class is created. the benefit is
that a class can be internally customized by the app without needing to
modify upstream versions of that class

Summary:
build with this disabled is just not working as the thread model of eo
falls apart. The threadmodel is required to have eo_id, as it decoded
the thread information in the eo_id, which is not working without eo_id.
This also fixes the testcases that have never been executed due to the
fact of the missing HAVE_EO_ID

so it was listening for cb adds and dels... and or del of any cb
except the cb add/del catcher was done.. it would fail...
but ... the test actually added other cbs than this ... like:
efl_event_callback_array_priority_add(obj, _eo_signals_callbacks(),
-100, (void *) 1);
a while array of cb's:
{ EV_A_CHANGED, _eo_signals_a_changed_cb },
{ EV_A_CHANGED, _eo_signals_a_changed_cb2 },
{ EV_A_CHANGED, _eo_signals_a_changed_never },
{ EFL_EVENT_DEL, _eo_signals_efl_del_cb });
none of which were _eo_signals_cb_added_deled. i am amazed it passed
before...
now switch its checks to check for itself and then check for anything
BUT itself...
so the MAIN loop is actually an efl.app object. which inherits from
efl.loop. the idea is that other loops in threads will not be efl.app
objects. thread on the creator side return an efl.thread object.
inside the thread, like the mainloop, there is now an efl.appthread
object that is for all non-main-loop threads.
every thread (main loop or child) when it spawns a thread is the
parent. there are i/o pipes from parnet to child and back. so parents
are generally expected to, if they want to talk to child thread, so
use the efl.io interfaces on efl.thread, and the main loop's elf.app
class allows you to talk to stdio back to the parent process like the
efl.appthread does the same using the efl.io interfaces to talk to its
parent app or appthread. it's symmetrical
no tests here - sure. i have been holding off on tests until things
settle. that's why i haven't done them yet. those will come back in a
subsequent commit

Triggered after (almost) complete destruction of the object.
Not called "deleted" because the other event is already "del".
I don't like "destruct" much but this follows the terminology of
"constructor" / "destructor".
@feature
This API is meant to be used by parts only, and by bindings dealing with
part objects. This patch fixes make check which got broken in the after
the previous one (cxx).
Before screaming in horror (C++...) here's why we may need this:
Efl.Part.part API returns an object that is by definition valid for a
single function call only. Enforcing this in practice is actually quite
hard as all implementation functions must manually take care of the
life-cycle. This is a lot of code in many places and a lot of
opportunities to forget to properly handle that life-cycle. Also, this
means any invalid function call on a part will leak an object.
This API absolutely must remain either "internal" or "beta" and
definitely not become abused by applications. On top of that such an API
can cause great trouble for bindings like C++. As a consequence, only
specially crafted APIs like efl_part() should return an object marked as
auto_unref.
Alternatively this API could be defined in Eo.h or some other
Eo_Internal.h. I placed it in efl_object.eo because it's much more
convenient :) (read: I'm lazy)
****
Performance notes:
Tested with clang & gcc (with -O2), I had a look at the output of perf
top, in particular the asm view. I used eo_bench in a loop. My
conclusions are:
- EINA_LIKELY/UNLIKELY actually works. The jump statement varies
according to the expectation. I highly doubt all those ugly goto in
eo.c / Eo.h are even useful.
- The impact of auto_unref on a call_resolve is so small it doesn't even
appear in the trace. It is significant inside call_end, though
(obviously, that function is just a few lines long). That function
accounts for ~1% to ~4% of all CPU time. The impact of auto_unref in
call_end is ~4% of the function time. This means ~0.16% of all CPU
time (worst measured case). _efl_object_op_api_id_get simply doesn't
show up because of caching, so the extra check there is negligible.
PS: I also tested EINA_LIKELY/UNLIKELY by compiling with -O2 and looking
at the output with objdump. The flag is well respected, and the jump
instructions are what you would expect (no jump for LIKELY and jump for
UNLIKELY). Conclusion: The goto's in eo.c only make the code harder to
read...
This makes sure the object is actually still alive and kicking before
returning any data. Otherwise the "safe" word is a bit of an abuse...
Ref T5869
@fix
This allows two things:
- adding new override functions on an object that already has
overrides
- resetting a specific function (or list of functions) to the
parent class implementation by passing NULL as implementation
Fixes T5580
@feature
This is a safe version of efl_data_scope_get, meaning that it will
return NULL if the object is not of the required type, or if there
is no data for that class, or if the given class was used as an
interface (and isn't a mixin).
@feature
This is similar to efl_super but the specified class is the one
we want to call the function on. This is similar to dynamic_cast<>
in C++.
Note: both efl_super() and efl_cast() need documentation!
This is an experimental feature.

This happens with shared objects.
The situation seems to be:
1. object has composited object a of class A in thread 1
2. call something on object a from thread 2, deadlock
In fact, do anything from thread 2 on a shared object and you deadlock.
This change lets us remove a field from the structure that leads to
around 20KiB more of saving in private dirty pages in elementary.
This also looks a bit better and feels a bit cleaner.
Breaks API and ABI.
testing all the core features of eo domains now. yes it could be a lot
more extensive but it tests the important day to day cases. this is
the case across most of our tests too - they dont really stress things
out a lot.
Before this commit, function overrides were explicit. That is, you'd
have to explicitly state you were overriding a function instead of
creating a new one. This made the code a tad more complex, and was also
a bit more annoying to use. This commit removes this extra piece of
information.
This means we now store much less information per function, that will
let us further optimise out structures in the future.
It has been discussed on the ML (thread: "[RFC] rename efl_self") and
IRC, and has been decided we should rename it to this in order to avoid
confusion with the already established meaning of self which is very
similar to what we were using it for, but didn't have complete overlap.
Kudos to Marcel Hollerbach for initiating the discussion and
fighting for it until he convinced a significant mass. :)
This commit breaks API, and depending on compiler potentially ABI.
