Summary:
Using C++ wrapper types in the signature of methods of the generated
classes.
Now, when the type is an Eo type defined in Eolian, eolian_cxx will detect
it and use the equivalent C++ wrapper.
Types defined in Eolian no longer need to be specified in the lookup table,
so removed them from there.
Disable wrapping of non-const char*. The current wrapper (unique_ptr) is
not suited for some required operations like ownership acquisition from
C code.
Fix constructing properties that only have the "set" method.
Fix translation of non-const parameters.
Modified Makefiles to allow proper inclusion of evas_cxx headers required
by some tests and examples.
Move one auxiliary function to another reader to make it more accessible.

Using eina::string_view in eolian generated interfaces (instead of
std::string) to allow lightweight passing of both C strings and C++
std::string.
Also, No longer using eina::optional in generated headers for types
that already implements the concept of null state (like Eo wrappers
and eina_accessor).
Also fix allocating callback objects require by class methods
(i.e. static) in static vectors so the memory will be freed when the
programs exit.
Added a new test case for testing callbacks on class methods.
Moved method definitions and supplementary code from generated C++
wrappers to auxiliary header file (.eo.impl.hh) generated together
with the main ".eo.hh" file. Updated Makefiles to list such files in
the compilation and cleanup processes. Updated .gitignore to include
these new generated files.
Made general adjustments on the documentation of generated C++ wrappers
Added "PREDEFINED" preprocessor macro definition in the Doxyfile.in in
order to make some adjustments for better documentation in the C++
generated headers. Excluding generation of documentation for classes
in the "eo_cxx" namespace (the namespace for "abstract" eolian C++
wrappers). Now generating the documentation for the events too.
Hiding some auxiliary code from being documented. Some aesthetic
adjustments for generated white space. Generate documentation for the
main constructor of C++ wrappers and added auxiliary grammars to list
parameters names.
Using a new architecture in the generated files that simplify multiple
inheritance and allows the use of interface types as parameters.
No longer using a hand-crafted C++ header for eo_base.eo.
This file was added to the generation process.
Updated all files that are dependent in the hand-crafted eo_base
C++ header.
Now there is a class that contains the essentials functions of the former
eo::base wrapper and that is used to create (through inheritance) the
"concrete" classes for all Eo generated wrappers.
No longer binding any function or property that are protected, private or
legacy for now.
eolian_type_instance is now a struct with general information for the
whole type.
Added the new header file namespace_generator.hh to hold namespace
generation grammars.
Separated declaration and definition of Eo wrappers methods.
Referring for most objects by its full name (starting at the global
namespace ::) in the generated files.
Created additional helper grammars to avoid code replication.
Removed a TODO comment referring to a doubt about inheritance of
constructor methods.
Added a TODO comment regarding memory allocation for callbacks in static
member functions.
