Summary:
the previous implementation/api had a number of issues:
* "file" property contained both "file" and "key" values
- also performed file loading operation
* "load_error" property which was specific to image objects
* no methods for controlling file loading/unloading
this patch attempts the following changes:
* split "file" property into "file" and "key" properties
- also remove "key" from existing "mmap" property
* remove "load_error"
* directly return error codes from operations
* add "load" and "unload" methods for directly controlling load state
* add implicit file loading if file/mmap is set during construction
* rewrite all efl.file implementations to move file loading into load() method
* rewrite all usage of efl.file api based on these changes
* add C extension functions to mimic previous behavior

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.
On destructor we're not supposed to emit events, I even thought that
would be implicit, but it's not. If we do, for example an event
handler that would 'efl_del()' on "EFL_IO_CLOSER_EVENT_CLOSED" would
trigger too-many unrefs.
Summary:
Currently eolian abbreviates when only the last word of class name and
the first word of method name are same, but this patch abbreviates
generated c name of function to remove all duplicated affix.
For example, "efl_io_closer_fd_closer_fd_set" will be "efl_io_closer_fd_set".

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.
These interfaces allows generic operations on objects that can store
or provide data, such as a file or a buffer.
With well defined interfaces and events we can create code such as
Efl.Io.Copier, that will link a source with a destination and
progressively copy data as they appear.
