This allows registering arbitrary objects on the core's registry and
finding them later, without having to add API for each and every object.
I think this is useful enough to have it public, even though it's
probably not going to be used that much... The rationale here is to
allow registering custom component loaders without having to make them
subclass WpPlugin or to create custom API for registering component
loaders specifically.
Also, remove the wp_plugin_register() and wp_si_factory_register()
functions, since they are not going to be used much in the future.
The idea is to let the component loader do the registration under the
scenes, as the component is getting loaded.
The intention is to make checks for enabled log topics faster.
Every topic has its own structure that is statically defined in the file
where the logs are printed from. The structure is initialized transparently
when it is first used and it contains all the log level flags for the levels
that this topic should print messages. It is then checked on the wp_log()
macro before printing the message.
Topics from SPA/PipeWire are also handled natively, so messages are printed
directly without checking if the topic is enabled, since the PipeWire and SPA
macros do the checking themselves.
Messages coming from GLib are checked inside the handler.
An internal WpLogFields object is used to manage the state of each log
message, populating all the fields appropriately from the place they
are coming from (wp_log, spa_log, glib log), formatting the message and
then printing it. For printing to the journald, we still use the glib
message handler, converting all the needed fields to GLogField on demand.
That message handler does not do any checks for the topic or the level, so
we can just call it to send the message.
Also rename the intermediate lua api table WpDebug -> WpLog
Keeps things more consistent with the function names (wp_log*),
with the lua api (Log.*) and with pipewire using log.{h,c} as well.
After all, these functions are for logging...
* use the activate/deactivate system from WpObject,
which allows async activation and error reporting
* drop 'module' property, use 'core' from WpObject
After discussing things at the AGL May 2019 F2F meeting
and reflecting on the initial design of WirePlumber,
it became clear that it needed a fresh start.
