/**
* @file classic_callback.h
* @author Nat Goodspeed
* @date 2016-06-21
* @brief ClassicCallback and HeapClassicCallback
*
* This header file addresses the problem of passing a method on a C++ object
* to an API that requires a classic-C function pointer. Typically such a
* callback API accepts a void* pointer along with the function pointer, and
* the function pointer signature accepts a void* parameter. The API passes
* the caller's pointer value into the callback function so it can find its
* data. In C++, there are a few ways to deal with this case:
*
* - Use a static method with correct signature. If you don't need access to a
* specific instance, that works fine.
* - Store the object statically (or store a static pointer to a non-static
* instance). As long as you only care about one instance, that works, but
* starts to get a little icky. As soon as there's more than one pertinent
* instance, fight valiantly against the temptation to stuff the instance
* pointer into a static pointer variable "just for a moment."
* - Code a static trampoline callback function that accepts the void* user
* data pointer, casts it to the appropriate class type and calls the actual
* method on that class.
*
* ClassicCallback encapsulates the last. You need only construct a
* ClassicCallback instance somewhere that will survive until the callback is
* called, binding the target C++ callable. You then call its get_callback()
* and get_userdata() methods to pass an appropriate classic-C function
* pointer and void* user data pointer, respectively, to the old-style
* callback API. get_callback() synthesizes a static trampoline function
* that casts the user data pointer and calls the bound C++ callable.

/**
* Instantiate ClassicCallback in whatever storage will persist long enough
* for the callback to be called. It holds a modern C++ callable, providing a
* static function pointer and a USERDATA (default void*) capable of being
* passed through a classic-C callback API. When the static function is called
* with that USERDATA pointer, ClassicCallback forwards the call to the bound
* C++ callable.
*
* Usage:
* @code
* // callback signature required by the API of interest
* typedef void (*callback_t)(int, const char*, void*, double);
* // old-style API that accepts a classic-C callback function pointer
* void oldAPI(callback_t callback, void* userdata);
* // but I want to pass a lambda that references data local to my function!
* // (We don't need to name the void* parameter in the C++ callable;
* // ClassicCallback already used it to locate the lambda instance.)
* auto ccb{
* makeClassicCallback<callback_t>(
* [=](int n, const char* s, void*, double f){ ... }) };
* oldAPI(ccb.get_callback(), ccb.get_userdata());
* // If the passed callback is called before oldAPI() returns, we can now
* // safely destroy ccb. If the callback might be called later, consider
* // HeapClassicCallback instead.
* @endcode
*
* If you have a callable object in hand, and you want to pass that to
* ClassicCallback, you may either consume it by passing std::move(object), or
* explicitly specify a reference to that object type as the CALLABLE template
* parameter:
* @code
* CallableObject obj;
* ClassicCallback<callback_t, void*, CallableObject&> ccb{obj};
* @endcode
