This commit will hopefully allow the cimport method to be used just as one
would use #inclue <header.h> in C. It follows the following method:
1. create a pseudoheader file that #include's all the requested header files
2. runs the pseudoheader through the C preprocessor (it will try various
compilers if available on the system).
3. runs the preprocessed file through a C formatter, which attempts to group
statements on one line. For example, a struct definition that was
formerly on several lines will take just one line after formatting. This
is done so that unique declarations can be detected. Duplicates are thus
easy to remove.
4. remove lines that are too complex for the LuaJIT C parser (such as:
Objective-C block syntax, crazy enums defined on linux, ...)
5. remove duplicate declarations
6. pass result to ffi.cdef
This achieves several goals:
* Less reliance on scripts so we have better portability to Windows
(though we still have a ways to go for proper Windows support).
Luajit, luarocks, moonscript, and busted are all installed via CMake
now.
* Trying to make use of pkg-config to get the correct libraries. The
latest libuv is still broken in this regard, but we'll at least be in
a position to use it.
* Allow the use of Ninja or make. The former runs faster in many
environments, and automatically makes use of parallel builds.
This also allows for system installed dependencies--though not through
the Makefile just yet--and adds support for FreeBSD.
This also make us build libuv and luajit as static libraries only, since
we're only concerned about having static libraries for our bundled
dependencies.
Tests will be written using the [moonscript](http://moonscript.org/) language,
a lua 'dialect' that is whitespace-significant and has a syntax similar to
coffeescript. The test framework used is [busted](http://olivinelabs.com/busted/),
a bdd framework for lua/moonscript.
Luajit has a nice ffi module, which lets lua programs link shared libraries and
call it's functions without writing any C code.
To take advantage of this fact for testing C functions, a new target was added
to CMakeLists.txt, which compiles neovim as a shared library that is loaded by
the process running the tests.
This commit adds necessary code for downloading and installing a lua package
manager(luarocks) locally. It wasn't added as a subtree because there are quite
a few blobs in its source tree.
