The public api is changed to require a context object for all
operations. Because other library objects store the context pointer
internally, only the constructor functions need an explicit context
object as a parameter.
Adding the "dc_" namespace prefix (which is of course an abbreviation
for libdivecomputer) should avoid conflicts with other libraries. For
the time being, only the high-level device and parser layers are
changed.
The public header files are moved to a new subdirectory, to separate
the definition of the public interface from the actual implementation.
Using an identical directory layout as the final installation has the
advantage that the example code can be build outside the project tree
without any modifications to the #include statements.
The common device structure was used only for sharing the fingerprint
and layout descriptor, but the nemo backend doesn't even store a layout
descriptor, and the fingerprint can equally well be passed around as a
function argument.
To be able to cancel an operation, an application should register a
callback function that returns a non-zero value whenever the active
operaton should be cancelled. A backend can invoke this callback function
to query the application for a pending cancellation request.
A helper function is added to simplify implementing the devic_dump()
function on top of the device_read() function, and enable progress
events automatically.
Using a resizable memory buffer allows to allocate the right amount of
memory inside the backend, avoiding having to know the required buffer
size in advance.
The memory layout of the Mares Puck and Nemo devices is very similar,
which allows to share the parsing code between the backends.
The Mares Puck protocol allows for a more efficient implementation, by
reading only the data that we really need. But as an intermediate
solution, reusing the Nemo code is good enough.
