Summary:
Patch from a series of patches to rename EAPI symbols to specific
library DSOs.
= The Rationale =
This patch is from a series of patches to rename EAPI symbols to
specific library DSOs.
EAPI was designed to be able to pass
`__attribute__ ((visibility ("default")))` for symbols with
GCC, which would mean that even if -fvisibility=hidden was used
when compiling the library, the needed symbols would get exported.
MSVC __almost__ works like GCC (or mingw) in which you can
declare everything as export and it will just work (slower, but
it will work). But there's a caveat: global variables will not
work the same way for MSVC, but works for mingw and GCC.
For global variables (as opposed to functions), MSVC requires
correct DSO visibility for MSVC: instead of declaring a symbol as
export for everything, you need to declare it as import when
importing from another DSO and export when defining it locally.
With current EAPI definitions, we get the following example
working in mingw and MSVC (observe it doesn't define any global
variables as exported symbols).
Example 1:
dll1:
```
EAPI void foo(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI void foo()
{
printf ("foo\n");
}
```
This works fine with API defined as __declspec(dllexport) in both
cases and for gcc defining as
`__atttribute__((visibility("default")))`.
However, the following:
Example 2:
dll1:
```
EAPI extern int foo;
EAPI void foobar(void);
EAPI void bar()
{
foo = 5;
foobar();
}
```
dll2:
```
EAPI int foo = 0;
EAPI void foobar()
{
printf ("foo %d\n", foo);
}
```
This will work on mingw but will not work for MSVC. And that's why
LIBAPI is the only solution that works for MSVC.

Summary:
Add support in Eolian-Cxx for binbuf and event keywords and tests. It
will generate the C type while the manual binding in C++ for the types
do not exist.

Summary:
Update eolian_cxx tests in order to remove forbidden eolian notations.
For tests with containers that support non-pointer types,
change `ptr(int)` to `int`.
For tests with containers that only support pointer types,
change `ptr(int)` to `string`.
Remove tests for features that are no longer meaningful with eolian new
restrictions.
Add a FIXME note to eina::range_array when used with eina::string_view.

This changes a lot of things all across the EFL. Previously,
methods tagged @const had both their external prototype and
internal impl generated with const on object, while property
getters only had const on the external API. This is now changed
and it all has const everywhere.
Ref T6859.
Efl.Object.event_callback_call no longer calls legacy smart callbacks;
calling only event callbacks registered with the given event description
pointer.
Create the method Efl.Object.event_callback_legacy_call to inherit the old
behavior from Efl.Object.event_callback_call, calling both Efl.Object events
and legacy smart callbacks.
Update all other files accordingly in order to still supply legacy
callbacks while they are necessary.
I just ran my script (email to follow) to migrate all of the EFL
automatically. This commit is *only* the automatic conversion, so it can
be easily reverted and re-run.
Added optional constructor methods for C++ Eolian wrappers.
Changed the interface of wrappers' main constructors.
If there are optional constructor methods they should be passed as variadic
template argument at the end of the constructor.
To support variadic template arguments, the optional "parent" parameter is
now the first parameter and there is another constructor without the
"parent" parameter.
Checking for @optinal and @nullable attributes instead of @nonull.
Now @nonull is the default, and eina::optional is only used when @optional
or @nullable attribute is specified.
The names of constructor methods no longer have the class name prefixed.
Added unit tests for checking the binding of optional constructors.
Added new .eo file to be used in the test.
Changed the generated documentation of constructors.
Changed the efl::eo::inherit accordingly, to address these new features.
Now the constructor methods should be explicit called in the
efl::eo::inherit constructor, which will receive them via variadic
template arguments.
Added another constructor to efl::eo::inherit for passing the parent
object.
Updated some tests and examples to follow the new interface.
Removed some code that is no longer necessary.
Also, fix Eolian C++ support for constructing properties. fix
assertion when parsing constructing properties.
Now if a property is a constructing property eolian_cxx will generate a
constructor method that have the property name (without the "_set" suffix).
