These types are of questionable value and the API was not entirely
thought out - remove for now, and if a legitimate use is found
later, they may be readded (with a better API), but typically it
seems best to redesign the bad APIs around safe containers...
This is a new type representing a mutable string (no const).
Regular strings cannot be made mutable with @owned because
they might be hidden behind typedefs.
Summary:
The ptr_null/nonnull were added in the 0.11 version of libcheck. The
required version in configure.ac is 0.9.10 (some distros still use this
old one).

It's a complex struct but defined in EO as a simple struct. ABI-wise
it's equivalent to Eina_Rectangle. Some macros that use Eina_Rectangle
also work on Eina_Rect out of the box, most of the code dealing with
x,y,w,h will require no modifications either.
But Eina_Rect provides direct access to a size or position 2d component,
as well as the usual x,y,w,h. The field "rect" is provided as a
convenience for code dealing with both Eina_Rectangle and Eina_Rect. We
may or may not require it.
Note: Size2D could use unsigned values but I have spotted a few places
in the code that actually use -1 to indicate invalid size (as opposed to
0x0).

This makes sure that the call to madvise is safe. On Linux it's not too
much of an issue as checks are made inside madvise, and the worst that
can happen is an error is returned (EINVAL). Not great.
But if MAP_POPULATE is not present, as is the case on *BSD, then the
internal function _eina_file_map_populate() is used for the populate
rule. In that case actual data is read and we should make sure not to
trigger a segfault or bus error.
Also, this makes sure that in case of HugeTLB we actually populate all
pages, rather than one page out of 8 (we were jumping by 16Mb instead of
2Mb).
Note: Can we get the size of a HugeTLB at runtime? We're assuming 2Mb
which might very well not be the case!
See: https://wiki.debian.org/Hugepages
Tested by disabling MAP_POPULATE and observing crashes :)
@fix
This backend has received no patch and maintenance from anyone who could
actually test it over the last few years. After talking with KaKaRoTo it
is best to remove it. If anyone want to take over its maintenance, you
are welcome to revert this patch.
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...

it turns out to be very handy to have a interface for the moving and
border elements, that is unconnected to the way of how widgets are
registering themself.
This for example enables us to get a simple focus manager that just
redirects the call into a internal 2 dimensional data struct
