Provide a common implementation for foo_name_c() functions that base on
foo_name_buf() functions.
char *foo_name_c(void *ctx, example_t arg)
{
OSMO_NAME_C_IMPL(ctx, 64, "ERROR", foo_name_buf, arg)
}
Rationale: the most efficient way of composing strings that have optional parts
or require loops for composition is by writing to a ready char[], and this in
turn is easiest done by using OSMO_STRBUF_* API. Using such a basic name string
implementation which typically returns a length, I often want a more convenient
version that returns a char*, which can just be inlined in a "%s" string format
-- crucially: skipping string composition when inlined in a LOGP(). This common
implementation allows saving code dup, only the function signature is needed.
Why not include the function signature in the macro? The two sets of varargs
(1: signature args, 2: function call args) are hard to do. Also, having an
explicit signature is good for readability and code grepping / ctags.
Upcoming uses: in libosmocore in the mslookup (D-GSM) implementation
(osmo_mslookup_result_name_c()), and in osmo_msc's codec negotiation
implementation (sdp_audio_codecs_name_c(), sdp_msg_name_c(), ...).
