Summary:
This removes all Eolian API that deals with handling of legacy
code. It also removes the code using it in the generator as well
as bindings, but for now keeps generation of .eo.legacy.h types,
as there are still instances in our codebase where things are
otherwise broken. We can remove the rest once that is resolved.

This allows us to unify retrieval of docs for both regular and
overridden funcs without having two separate APIs. It's currently
missing validation and docgen is still not adjusted properly for
it either, but at least there's this. Enables retrieval of docs
for overridden funcs by default as well.
Strictness of various Eolian APIs has been enhanced, for example
eolian_class_function_get_by_name now won't return anything if
you request an EOLIAN_PROPERTY and the found func is just an
EOLIAN_PROP_GET, and various APIs won't accept arbitrary inputs
like EOLIAN_UNRESOLVED or EOLIAN_PROPERTY now, instead you will
need to provide EOLIAN_PROP_GET, EOLIAN_PROP_SET or EOLIAN_METHOD
explicitly.
The purpose of this is to reduce potential bugs and fix ambiguous
behavior. Thanks to use of EINA_SAFETY, appropriate errors should
be printed into terminal when an API is used incorrectly.
Sometimes it is necessary to specify a different set of values for a
getter or a setter. This commit allows such specializations. This also
renders @const_get and @const_set useless (soon to be removed).
To function correctly, this required adjustment of several public APIs
as well as deprecation of eolian_function_parameter_get_by_name.
This function was not used in any generator and was pretty much
useless in the first place, so it was removed.
@fix
This patch adds a list of strings called 'ctor_of' to
_Eolian_Function. This list will contain all classes in which this
function is a constructing function.
ctor_of is filled in two moments:
* When filling the constructors of a class, class->full_name is inserted
in the 'ctor_of' of each constructor's function.
* When filling the implements of a class, if the function is a
constructor of its superclass it also becomes a constructor of the
current class, so class->full_name is also inserted in the 'ctor_of'
of each implement's function.
eolian_function_is_constructor gets a func and klass arguments. It goes
through ctor_of of func and returns EINA_TRUE if klass->full_name is
found, otherwise it returns EINA_FALSE.
This commit also does several side (related) changes. Particularly, it updates
the Eolian C generator to use the new API, it adds missing expr types (null, char)
and masks, updates the API dealing with default return values to use expressions
instead of strings and does several fixes (mainly in lexer) around the place.
It also disallows single quoted strings as those are reserved for characters.
