strbuf.h: integrate api-strbuf.txt documentation

Browse Source 
Some of strbuf is documented as comments above functions,
and some is separate in Documentation/technical/api-strbuf.txt.
This makes it annoying to find the appropriate documentation.
We'd rather have it all in one place, which means all in the
text document, or all in the header.

Let's choose the header as that place. Even though the
formatting is not quite as pretty, this keeps the
documentation close to the related code.  The hope is that
this makes it easier to find what you want (human-readable
comments are right next to the C declarations), and easier
for writers to keep the documentation up to date.

This is more or less a straight import of the text from
api-strbuf.txt into C comments, complete with asciidoc
formatting. The exceptions are:

 1. All comments created in this way are started with "/**"
    to indicate they are part of the API documentation. This
    may help later with extracting the text to pretty-print
    it.

 2. Function descriptions do not repeat the function name,
    as it is available in the context directly below.  So:

      `strbuf_add`::

          Add data of given length to the buffer.

    from api-strbuf.txt becomes:

      /**
       * Add data of given length to the buffer.
       */
      void strbuf_add(struct strbuf *sb, const void *, size_t);

    As a result, any block-continuation required in asciidoc
    for that list item was dropped in favor of straight
    blank-line paragraph (since it is not necessary when we
    are not in a list item).

 3. There is minor re-wording to integrate existing comments
    and api-strbuf text. In each case, I took whichever
    version was more descriptive, and eliminated any
    redundancies. In one case, for strbuf_addstr, the api
    documentation gave its inline definition; I eliminated
    this as redundant with the actual definition, which can
    be seen directly below the comment.

 4. The functions in the header file are re-ordered to match
    the ordering of the API documentation, under the
    assumption that more thought went into the grouping
    there.

strbuf API
==========
strbuf's are meant to be used with all the usual C string and memory
APIs. Given that the length of the buffer is known, it's often better to
use the mem* functions than a str* one (memchr vs. strchr e.g.).
Though, one has to be careful about the fact that str* functions often
stop on NULs and that strbufs may have embedded NULs.
A strbuf is NUL terminated for convenience, but no function in the
strbuf API actually relies on the string being free of NULs.
strbufs have some invariants that are very important to keep in mind:
. The `buf` member is never NULL, so it can be used in any usual C
string operations safely. strbuf's _have_ to be initialized either by
`strbuf_init()` or by `= STRBUF_INIT` before the invariants, though.
+
Do *not* assume anything on what `buf` really is (e.g. if it is
allocated memory or not), use `strbuf_detach()` to unwrap a memory
buffer from its strbuf shell in a safe way. That is the sole supported
way. This will give you a malloced buffer that you can later `free()`.
+
However, it is totally safe to modify anything in the string pointed by
the `buf` member, between the indices `0` and `len-1` (inclusive).
. The `buf` member is a byte array that has at least `len + 1` bytes
allocated. The extra byte is used to store a `'\0'`, allowing the
`buf` member to be a valid C-string. Every strbuf function ensure this
invariant is preserved.
+
NOTE: It is OK to "play" with the buffer directly if you work it this
way:
+
----
strbuf_grow(sb, SOME_SIZE); <1>
strbuf_setlen(sb, sb->len + SOME_OTHER_SIZE);
----
<1> Here, the memory array starting at `sb->buf`, and of length
`strbuf_avail(sb)` is all yours, and you can be sure that
`strbuf_avail(sb)` is at least `SOME_SIZE`.
+
NOTE: `SOME_OTHER_SIZE` must be smaller or equal to `strbuf_avail(sb)`.
+
Doing so is safe, though if it has to be done in many places, adding the
missing API to the strbuf module is the way to go.
+
WARNING: Do _not_ assume that the area that is yours is of size `alloc
- 1` even if it's true in the current implementation. Alloc is somehow a
"private" member that should not be messed with. Use `strbuf_avail()`
instead.
Data structures
---------------
* `struct strbuf`
This is the string buffer structure. The `len` member can be used to
determine the current length of the string, and `buf` member provides
access to the string itself.
Functions
---------
* Life cycle
`strbuf_init`::
Initialize the structure. The second parameter can be zero or a bigger
number to allocate memory, in case you want to prevent further reallocs.
`strbuf_release`::
Release a string buffer and the memory it used. You should not use the
string buffer after using this function, unless you initialize it again.
`strbuf_detach`::
Detach the string from the strbuf and returns it; you now own the
storage the string occupies and it is your responsibility from then on
to release it with `free(3)` when you are done with it.
`strbuf_attach`::
Attach a string to a buffer. You should specify the string to attach,
the current length of the string and the amount of allocated memory.
The amount must be larger than the string length, because the string you
pass is supposed to be a NUL-terminated string. This string _must_ be
malloc()ed, and after attaching, the pointer cannot be relied upon
anymore, and neither be free()d directly.
`strbuf_swap`::
Swap the contents of two string buffers.
* Related to the size of the buffer
`strbuf_avail`::
Determine the amount of allocated but unused memory.
`strbuf_grow`::
Ensure that at least this amount of unused memory is available after
`len`. This is used when you know a typical size for what you will add
and want to avoid repetitive automatic resizing of the underlying buffer.
This is never a needed operation, but can be critical for performance in
some cases.
`strbuf_setlen`::
Set the length of the buffer to a given value. This function does *not*
allocate new memory, so you should not perform a `strbuf_setlen()` to a
length that is larger than `len + strbuf_avail()`. `strbuf_setlen()` is
just meant as a 'please fix invariants from this strbuf I just messed
with'.
`strbuf_reset`::
Empty the buffer by setting the size of it to zero.
* Related to the contents of the buffer
`strbuf_trim`::
Strip whitespace from the beginning and end of a string.
Equivalent to performing `strbuf_rtrim()` followed by `strbuf_ltrim()`.
`strbuf_rtrim`::
Strip whitespace from the end of a string.
`strbuf_ltrim`::
Strip whitespace from the beginning of a string.
`strbuf_reencode`::
Replace the contents of the strbuf with a reencoded form. Returns -1
on error, 0 on success.
`strbuf_tolower`::
Lowercase each character in the buffer using `tolower`.
`strbuf_cmp`::
Compare two buffers. Returns an integer less than, equal to, or greater
than zero if the first buffer is found, respectively, to be less than,
to match, or be greater than the second buffer.
* Adding data to the buffer
NOTE: All of the functions in this section will grow the buffer as necessary.
If they fail for some reason other than memory shortage and the buffer hadn't
been allocated before (i.e. the `struct strbuf` was set to `STRBUF_INIT`),
then they will free() it.
`strbuf_addch`::
Add a single character to the buffer.
`strbuf_addchars`::
Add a character the specified number of times to the buffer.
`strbuf_insert`::
Insert data to the given position of the buffer. The remaining contents
will be shifted, not overwritten.
`strbuf_remove`::
Remove given amount of data from a given position of the buffer.
`strbuf_splice`::
Remove the bytes between `pos..pos+len` and replace it with the given
data.
`strbuf_add_commented_lines`::
Add a NUL-terminated string to the buffer. Each line will be prepended
by a comment character and a blank.
`strbuf_add`::
Add data of given length to the buffer.
`strbuf_addstr`::
Add a NUL-terminated string to the buffer.
+
NOTE: This function will *always* be implemented as an inline or a macro
that expands to:
+
----
strbuf_add(..., s, strlen(s));
----
+
Meaning that this is efficient to write things like:
+
----
strbuf_addstr(sb, "immediate string");
----
`strbuf_addbuf`::
Copy the contents of another buffer at the end of the current one.
`strbuf_adddup`::
Copy part of the buffer from a given position till a given length to the
end of the buffer.
`strbuf_expand`::
This function can be used to expand a format string containing
placeholders. To that end, it parses the string and calls the specified
function for every percent sign found.
+
The callback function is given a pointer to the character after the `%`
and a pointer to the struct strbuf. It is expected to add the expanded
version of the placeholder to the strbuf, e.g. to add a newline
character if the letter `n` appears after a `%`. The function returns
the length of the placeholder recognized and `strbuf_expand()` skips
over it.
+
The format `%%` is automatically expanded to a single `%` as a quoting
mechanism; callers do not need to handle the `%` placeholder themselves,
and the callback function will not be invoked for this placeholder.
+
All other characters (non-percent and not skipped ones) are copied
verbatim to the strbuf. If the callback returned zero, meaning that the
placeholder is unknown, then the percent sign is copied, too.
+
In order to facilitate caching and to make it possible to give
parameters to the callback, `strbuf_expand()` passes a context pointer,
which can be used by the programmer of the callback as she sees fit.
`strbuf_expand_dict_cb`::
Used as callback for `strbuf_expand()`, expects an array of
struct strbuf_expand_dict_entry as context, i.e. pairs of
placeholder and replacement string. The array needs to be
terminated by an entry with placeholder set to NULL.
`strbuf_addbuf_percentquote`::
Append the contents of one strbuf to another, quoting any
percent signs ("%") into double-percents ("%%") in the
destination. This is useful for literal data to be fed to either
strbuf_expand or to the *printf family of functions.
`strbuf_humanise_bytes`::
Append the given byte size as a human-readable string (i.e. 12.23 KiB,
3.50 MiB).
`strbuf_addf`::
Add a formatted string to the buffer.
`strbuf_commented_addf`::
Add a formatted string prepended by a comment character and a
blank to the buffer.
`strbuf_fread`::
Read a given size of data from a FILE* pointer to the buffer.
+
NOTE: The buffer is rewound if the read fails. If -1 is returned,
`errno` must be consulted, like you would do for `read(3)`.
`strbuf_read()`, `strbuf_read_file()` and `strbuf_getline()` has the
same behaviour as well.
`strbuf_read`::
Read the contents of a given file descriptor. The third argument can be
used to give a hint about the file size, to avoid reallocs.
`strbuf_read_file`::
Read the contents of a file, specified by its path. The third argument
can be used to give a hint about the file size, to avoid reallocs.
`strbuf_readlink`::
Read the target of a symbolic link, specified by its path. The third
argument can be used to give a hint about the size, to avoid reallocs.
`strbuf_getline`::
Read a line from a FILE *, overwriting the existing contents
of the strbuf. The second argument specifies the line
terminator character, typically `'\n'`.
Reading stops after the terminator or at EOF. The terminator
is removed from the buffer before returning. Returns 0 unless
there was nothing left before EOF, in which case it returns `EOF`.
`strbuf_getwholeline`::
Like `strbuf_getline`, but keeps the trailing terminator (if
any) in the buffer.
`strbuf_getwholeline_fd`::
Like `strbuf_getwholeline`, but operates on a file descriptor.
It reads one character at a time, so it is very slow. Do not
use it unless you need the correct position in the file
descriptor.
`strbuf_getcwd`::
Set the buffer to the path of the current working directory.
`strbuf_add_absolute_path`
Add a path to a buffer, converting a relative path to an
absolute one in the process. Symbolic links are not
resolved.
`stripspace`::
Strip whitespace from a buffer. The second parameter controls if
comments are considered contents to be removed or not.
`strbuf_split_buf`::
`strbuf_split_str`::
`strbuf_split_max`::
`strbuf_split`::
Split a string or strbuf into a list of strbufs at a specified
terminator character. The returned substrings include the
terminator characters. Some of these functions take a `max`
parameter, which, if positive, limits the output to that
number of substrings.
`strbuf_list_free`::
Free a list of strbufs (for example, the return values of the
`strbuf_split()` functions).
`launch_editor`::
Launch the user preferred editor to edit a file and fill the buffer
with the file's contents upon the user completing their editing. The
third argument can be used to set the environment which the editor is
run in. If the buffer is NULL the editor is launched as usual but the
file's contents are not read into the buffer upon completion.
