This will be used to replace the part translation API in Elm.Widget. It
should work for both parts and non-parts (ie. the main text of a button,
for instance).
For now I'm taking the following approach:
- All efl_text_set/get strings are untranslatable, i.e. get() returns
the visible string, set replaces and can not be translated.
- translatable_text_set/get needs to be used to enable automatic
translation, which in turns calls efl_text_set to modify the visible
string. Thus, translatable applications will have to use
efl_ui_translatable_text_set a lot more than efl_text_set, unless
they translate strings application-side.
Note that some other frameworks take a simpler approach equivalent to
calling efl_text_set() with an already translated text. This prevents
runtime language changes of the application, unless the application
handles them specifically.
Some names have not been changed, hopefully making a distinction
between legacy APIs and internal code (elm_layout_blah) and valid EO
usages.
This means many internal functions are still elm_layout_ as their
sole purpose is to support the legacy API.
Ref T5315
elm_layout_sizing_eval() marks an object as requiring recalc.
Unfortunately, it's been massively abused by various widgets into
actually doing the calc, or the min calc. So we end up with one API
that has 3 different definitions depending on the widget type:
1. Mark as requiring recalc (correct, respects doc, elm_layout)
2. Calculate min size and other size hints
3. Actually do some geometry modification
I believe we need to clarify these 3 requirements into 3 very clear
and specific APIs in elementary. Right now we have similar functions
in evas for 1 (evas_object_smart_changed) and 3 (smart_calculate).
But their exact definition also isn't necessarily what we want for
elementary.
Another clear problem is that layout_eval does not do any calculation
(in theory), so the "eval" word is a bit of a stretch here.
Once we're sure about the exact API we want, we can add this back to
EO and make it work across our EO widgets. For now let's just keep
the legacy API, and its EO overrides, as is.
Ref T5315
This implements a new builtin, stringshare, which is replaced with the right
pointer to Eina_Strinshare as necessary. This allows simplifying binding code
(it can call the proper eina APIs, deal with lifetime etc).
It also removes the extern Eina.Stringshare typedef from eina_types.eot, which
was actually incorrect and would generate invalid code in binding generators.

This touches Edje and also Elementary where part names are used.
This commit blew up in size since now all content part APIs
(get, set, unset) require to use Efl.Part instead.
This is a big refactoring commit, but no logic should
have been changed. Fingers crossed.
Complex types (i.e. list, array, hash, accessor etc.) now do not require
pointers with them anymore (the pointer is implied) and the same goes for
class handles. Eolian now explicitly disallows creating pointers to these
as well. This is the first part of the work to remove pointers from Eolian
completely, with the goal of simplifying the DSL (higher level) and therefore
making it easier for bindings (as well as easier API usage).

Previously events used to use class name as a prefix and ignored eo_prefix
when specified. This is no longer the case. Events follow eo_prefix by default
now. In order to get around this for classes where this is undesirable, a new
field event_prefix was added which takes priority over eo_prefix. If neither
is specified, class name is used like previously.

This removes Efl.Pack_Named which had a terrible name,
removes Elm.Container which should have been renamed
Efl.Ui.Container anyway, and introduces an interface
Efl.Container instead.
The hierarchy tree is now changed as objects don't inherit
from Efl.Container (it's an interface, not a regular class)
but only implement it. Obviously it is very easy to
reintroduce an Efl.Ui.Container parent class if we need it,
but I guess it should have some actual logic. It's basically
part of what Elm.Widget already does.
Some function names have been modified to look better in C
with the efl_content prefix.
