error.c - error reporting code for Imager

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  // user code:
  int new_fatal; // non-zero if errors are fatal
  int old_fatal = i_set_failure_fatal(new_fatal);
  i_set_argv0("name of your program");
  extern void error_cb(char const *);
  i_error_cb old_ecb;
  old_ecb = i_set_error_cb(error_cb);
  i_failed_cb old_fcb;
  extern void failed_cb(char **errors);
  old_fcb = i_set_failed_cb(failed_cb);
  if (!i_something(...)) {
    char **errors = i_errors();
  }

  // imager code:
  undef_int i_something(...) {
    i_clear_error();
    if (!some_lower_func(...)) {
      return i_failed("could not something");
    }
    return 1;
  }
  undef_int some_lower_func(...) {
    if (somethingelse_failed()) {
      i_push_error("could not somethingelse");
      return 0;
    }
    return 1;
  }

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module provides the C level error handling functionality for
Imager.

A few functions return or pass in an i_errmsg *, this is list of error
structures, terminated by an entry with a NULL msg value, each of
which contains a msg and an error code. Even though these aren't
passed as i_errmsg const * pointers, don't modify the strings
or the pointers.

The interface as currently defined isn't thread safe, unfortunately.

This code uses Imager's mymalloc() for memory allocation, so out of
memory errors are I<always> fatal.

=head1 INTERFACE

These functions form the interface that a user of Imager sees (from
C).  The Perl level won't use all of this.

=head1 INTERNAL FUNCTIONS

These functions are called by Imager to report errors through the
above interface.

It may be desirable to have functions to mark the stack and reset to
the mark.

=item i_clear_error()
=synopsis i_clear_error();
=category Error handling

Clears the error stack.

Called by any Imager function before doing any other processing.

=category Error handling

Called by an Imager function to push an error message onto the stack.

forgot to call i_clear_error(), or that a function that doesn't do
error handling is calling function that does.).
