EINA_ITERATOR_FOREACH() and EINA_ACCESSOR_FOREACH() are new macros to
help us forget about nasty C details (like cast to (void **)).
Document most iterators and accessors.
All iterators now set EINA_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY if it's the case.

now EINA_INLIST_GET(bla)->next will work, before it was like
&bla->__in_list->next
which is wrong, since __in_list is not a pointer, rather the memory itself.

safety checks will report null pointers and other error conditions on
public api's and can be disabled by compile time check.
note that in order to have these checks working we need to make
EINA_ARG_NONNULL() void, otherwise GCC can remove these checks since
they're known to be false.
This commit also make two minor changes:
* list and hash accessors and iterators are created even for empty
entities. This is correct in my point of view since NULL should
indicate error. Having these in were an optimziation, but not
worth it, these are not the most common case and hitting this path
is not of much cost.
* unmarked some parameters as nonnull, mainly on list and inlist.

this should help with optimizations and code correctness, please see
"info gcc" for detailed explanation on these.
if you experience some functions not working as expected, please
double check if they're not marked with EINA_PURE or EINA_CONST, maybe
I misused them. Remove the macro and try again.
brief explanation:
* EINA_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT: if you forgot to use the return of some
function, it will emit a warning (and -Werror will make it an
error). This way it will be harder to miss the attribution
"l = eina_list_append(l, v)".
* EINA_ARG_NONNULL(index, index...): if you give it an explicit NULL
argument, or some tool (ie: clang) finds it could get a NULL but
this is not accepted by API, then a warning will be emitted. This
will help those that still use eina_hash_add() as if it is
evas_hash_add().
* EINA_MALLOC: any non-NULL pointer it returns cannot alias any other
pointer valid when function returns.
* EINA_PURE: function have no effects other than the return and this
return just depend on parameters and/or globals. You might call
this function in a loop a thousand times and it will return the
same value, thus you may move this function outside the loop and
remove it.
* EINA_CONST: stricter version of EINA_PURE, it will not check for
global parameters, that is, you cannot consider pointer
arguments. Use it for math things like "int sqrt(int)".
* EINA_PRINTF(fmt, arg): will check format parameter specified in
position "fmt" and passed arguments starting at position "arg", it
will check for things like giving integers where short or strings
were expected.
* EINA_SCANF(fmt, arg): similar to eina_printf().
* EINA_FORMAT(fmt): for use with things like dgettext(), it will get
a printf-like format string and modifies it.
Please review and test it with your software, make sure you make clean
before you install the new version so it has any effect.
If you find some functions are missing EINA_WARN_UNUSED_RESULT and
EINA_ARG_NONNULL or others, please add them.

* evas: if we automatically destroy hash, check for NULL before
handling it to eina api, which expect elements to be created with
eina_hash_new() and thus will fail on NULL.
* eina: add magic checking for eina_hash and eina_hash_iterator, this will
help spot when NULL is used.
* eina_hash_foreach: do not try to create the iterator if hash is NULL.

By using simpler functions for hash element deletion we can avoid the
hack to shut up GCC warking about hash_num not being used. As these
simple functions are more often needed than the catch-all, expose them
as well.

Keep EINA_MAGIC at the end of the structure (WHEN POSSIBLE! Watch out
flexible arrays like char str[] at the end!)
this way if parts use EINA_MAGIC and others do not, it will possible overflow and valgrind can help us.
WARNING: make uninstall before update! Then make clean and make install, check if everything is working with "make check".
SVN revision: 37961
eina_magic.h MUST include eina_config.h, otherwise it will not
consider EINA_MAGIC stuff. Worse than that, some files were including
that directly and were considering EINA_MAGIC attribute even if the
file that alloc'ed the memory were not!
Also add missing EINA_MAGIC_SET() to iterators and accessors.

Many places in EFL we just create walk something, create a list with
walked data, return, then the user walks it again and then deletes
(which will walk again). For such cases it's way better to define
iterators or accessors.
I'm not moving any EFL code to it now, but if people are interested,
things like evas_render_method_list(), evas_font_available_list(),
evas_objects_at_xy_get(), evas_objects_in_rectangle_get(),
evas_object_smart_members_get() are good candidates. If the subject is
already using Eina list, then you can just use
eina_list_iterator_new() and return it, otherwise you can define your
own iterator, which is very easy.

This is a faster "add", if we know we're using a shared string we know
the node without any need to search it, just increment reference and
exit.
