libnvim couldn't be easily used in C++ due to the use of reserved keywords.
Additionally, add explicit casts to *alloc function calls used in inline
functions, as C++ doesn't allow implicit casts from void pointers.
`lib/queue.h` implements a basic queue. `event/queue.c` implements
a specialized data structure on top of lib/queue.h; it is not a "normal"
queue.
Rename the specialized multi-level queue implemented in event/queue.c to
"multiqueue", to avoid confusion when reading the code.
Before this change one can eventually notice that "macros (uppercase
symbols) are for the normal queue, lowercase operations are for the
multi-level queue", but that is unnecessary friction for new developers
(or existing developers just visiting this part of the codebase).
Extract the RBuffer class from rstream.c and reimplement it as a ring buffer,
a more efficient version that doesn't need to relocate memory.
The old rbuffer_read/rbuffer_write interfaces are kept for simple
reading/writing, and the RBUFFER_UNTIL_{FULL,EMPTY} macros are introduced to
hide wrapping logic when more control is required(such as passing the buffer
pointer to a library function that writes directly to the pointer)
Also add a basic infrastructure for writing helper C files that are only
compiled in the unit test library, and use this to write unit tests for RBuffer
which contains some macros that can't be accessed directly by luajit.
