Since the flags are now stored with compatible numbering, we can
just OR them together and see whether the flag we want is in the
result.
(Net code removal!)
Using a bitfield here will enable us to unify the var_type_def_t flags
with the config_var_t flags.
(This commit does not yet do that unification, and does not yet
rename or refactor any flags. It only changes booleans into bits.)
Previously they checked the individual flags inside var_type_def_t;
now they call the appropriate var_type_is_*() functions.
(These functions will be removed entirely by the end of this branch.)
Now that the variants of these functions that took config_line_t are
gone, there is no longer any reason for the remaining variants to
have "ex" at the end of their names.
This commit was made by running this perl script over all the files
in src/:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w -i -p
s{typed_var_(assign|free|encode|copy|eq|ok|kvassign|kvencode|mark_fragile)_ex}
{typed_var_$1}g;
"unsettable" is a property of types. LINELIST_V and OBSOLETE are
unsettable, meaning that they cannot be set by name.
"contained" is a property of types. I'm hoping to find a better
name here. LINELIST_S is "contained" because it always appears
within a LINELIST_V, and as such doesn't need to be dumped ore
copied independently.
"cumulative" is a property of types. Cumulative types can appear
more than once in a torrc without causing a warning, because they
add to each other rather than replacing each other.
"obsolete" is a property of variables.
"marking fragile" is now a command that struct members can accept.
With these changes, confparse and config no longer ever need to
mention CONFIG_TYPE_XYZ values by name.
Right now, this has been done at a high level by confparse.c, but it
makes more sense to lower it.
This API is radically un-typesafe as it stands; we'll be wrapping it
in a safer API as we do #30914 and lower the struct manipulation
code as well.
Closes ticket 30864.
