/*tex TODO: update |[get|set]field| for added node entries */

/*tex

    This module is one of the backbones on \LUAMETATEX. It has gradually been extended based on
    experiences in \CONTEXT\ \MKIV\ and later \LMTX. There are many helpers here and the main
    reason is that the more callbacks one enables and the more one does in them, the larger the
    impact on performance.

    After doing lots of tests with \LUATEX\ and \LUAJITTEX, with and without jit, and with and
    without ffi, I came to the conclusion that userdata prevents a speedup. I also found that the
    checking of metatables as well as assignment comes with overhead that can't be neglected. This
    is normally not really a problem but when processing fonts for more complex scripts it's quite
    some  overhead. So \unknown\ direct nodes were introduced (we call them nuts in \CONTEXT).

    Because the userdata approach has some benefits, we keep that interface too. We did some
    experiments with fast access (assuming nodes), but eventually settled for the direct approach.
    For code that is proven to be okay, one can use the direct variants and operate on nodes more
    directly. Currently these are numbers but don't rely on that property; treat them aslhmin

    abstractions. An important aspect is that one cannot mix both methods, although with |tonode|
    and |todirect| one can cast representations.

    So the advice is: use the indexed (userdata) approach when possible and investigate the direct
    one when speed might be an issue. For that reason we also provide some get* and set* functions
    in the top level node namespace. There is a limited set of getters for nodes and a generic
    getfield to complement them. The direct namespace has a few more.

    Keep in mind that such speed considerations only make sense when we're accessing nodes millions
    of times (which happens in font processing for instance). Setters are less important as
    documents have not that many content related nodes and setting many thousands of properties is
    hardly a burden contrary to millions of consultations. And with millions, we're talking of tens
    of millions which is not that common.

    Another change is that |__index| and |__newindex| are (as expected) exposed to users but do no
    checking. The getfield and setfield functions do check. In fact, a fast mode can be simulated
    by fast_getfield = __index but the (measured) benefit on average runs is not that large (some
    5\% when we also use the other fast ones) which is easily nilled by inefficient coding. The
    direct variants on the other hand can be significantly faster but with the drawback of lack of
    userdata features. With respect to speed: keep in mind that measuring a speedup on these
    functions is not representative for a normal run, where much more happens.

    A user should beware of the fact that messing around with |prev|, |next| and other links can
    lead to crashes. Don't complain about this: you get what you ask for. Examples are bad loops
    in nodes lists that make the program run out of stack space.

    The code below differs from the \LUATEX\ code in that it drops some userdata related
    accessors. These can easily be emulates in \LUA, which is what we do in \CONTEXT\ \LMTX. Also,
    some optimizations, like using macros and dedicated |getfield| and |setfield| functions for
    userdata and direct nodes were removed because on a regular run there is not much impact and
    the less code we have, the better. In the early days of \LUATEX\ it really did improve the
    overall performance but computers (as well as compilers) have become better. But still, it
    could be that \LUATEX\ has a better performance here; so be it. A performance hit can also be
    one of the side effects of the some more rigorous testing of direct node validity introduced
    here.

    Attribute nodes are special as their prev and subtype fields are used for other purposes.
    Setting them can confuse the checkers but we don't check each case for performance reasons.
    Messing a list up is harmless and only affects functionality which is the users responsibility
    anyway.

    In \LUAMETATEX\ nodes can have different names and properties as in \LUATEX. Some might be
    backported but that is kind of dangerous as macro packages other than \CONTEXT\ depend on
    stability of \LUATEX. (It's one of the reasons for \LUAMETATEX\ being around: it permits us
    to move on).

    Todo: getters/setters for leftovers.

    There is a bit of checking for validity of direct nodes but of course one can still create
    havoc by using flushed nodes, setting bad links, etc.

    Although we could gain a little by moving the body of the valid checker into the caller (that
    way the field variables might be shared) there is no real measurable gain in that on a regular
    run. So, in the end I settled for function calls.

    The order is somewhat determined by the occurance of nodes and importance of fields. We use
    |somenode[9]| as interface to attributes ... 30\% faster than has_attribute (1) because there
    is no \LUA\ function overhead, and (2) because we already know that we deal with a node so no
    checking is needed. The fast typecheck is needed (lua_check... is a slow down actually).

    This is just a reminder for me: when used in the build page routine the |last_insert_ptr| and
    |best_insert_ptr| are sort of tricky as the first in a list can be a fake node (zero zero list
    being next). Because no properties are accessed this works ok. In the getfield routines we
    can assume that these nodes are never seen (the pagebuilder constructs insert nodes using that
    data). But it is something to keep an eye on when we open up more or add callbacks. So there
    is a comment below.

    In the meantime we have some more fields so I need to check this in |getfield| and |setfield|
    but in due time.

    Beware: it is not always measurable faster than multiple calls but it can make code look a
    bit better (at least in \CONTEXT\ where we can use it a few times). There are more such
    hybrid helpers where the return value depends on the node type.

    The second glyph is okay when the most meaningful properties are the same. We assume that
    states can differ so we don't check for that. One of the few assumptions when using
    \CONTEXT.

    Disc nodes are kind of special in the sense that their head is not the head as we see it, but
    a special node that has status info of which head and tail are part. Normally when proper
    set/get functions are used this status node is all right but if a macro package permits
    arbitrary messing around, then it can at some point call the following cleaner, just before
    line breaking kicks in. This one is not called automatically because if significantly slows 
    down the line break routing.
