Log Message:
Address concerns about limited compile-time type checking with the
tag-value mechanism of specifying arguments to config_search(),
config_found(), and config_attach() by replacing the tag-value scheme
with a "struct cfargs", a pointer to which is passed to the aforementioned
functions instead.
The structure has a version field to allow for future ABI versioning
flexibility. The external structure is canononicalized internally
before use.
To ease the initialization of this structure, use a variadic preprocessor
macro, CFARGS(), to construct an anonymous "struct cfargs" inline, the
address of which is passed to the target function. A CFARGS_NONE macro
provides a symbolic stand-in for when the caller doesn't want to pass
arguments (currently expands to NULL and is handled during canonicalization).
