SWIG has always marshalled the null matrix into a NULL pointer; this remains
and now we have consistency in representing a NULL pointer.
This is a pre-requisite for a pending commit to fully support std::unique_ptr.
SWIG now converts a C/C++ NULL pointer into a null value by calling
scheme_make_null(), so that scheme's null? is true for a NULL C/C++
pointer value.
Consistency with Guile and needed for a pending commit for handling
NULL and std::unique_ptr.
Not fully implemented and Untested.
Go's implementation needs fixing to fully support typemaps
before this can be done.
OCaml implementation does not have support for releasing ownership
which is required to add error checking preventing double deletes.
This reverts commit 0ff9a0959a.
The modified fix breaks Java and C#, where C constant expressions
get used in the generated target language code in some cases.
Revert this fix for now.
No need to check for NULL before calling delete/free.
Anyone using typemaps_string_alloc with custom allocators and
deallocators need to ensure the custom allocators behave in the
same way as the standard deallocators in this respect.

This OS has been unsupported for over 20 years. We stopped providing
macswig builds more than 20 years ago too:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/swig/files/macswig/
The required SIOUX library doesn't seem to be available anywhere
now either.
Closes#2323
Avoid using reserved identifiers such as `_DOHINT_H` (fixes#1989),
fix cases where the name doesn't match the filename, and make the naming
more consistent and less likely to collide with include guards in other
headers.
Change these typemaps to assume that after a function call,
the parameter has been moved. The parameter's proxy class
that owns the C++ object thus has the underlying pointer set
to null so the object cannot be used again and the object is deleted.
Scrap new javarelease typemap and move contents into javabody typemap.
This works by transferring ownership of the underlying C++ memory
from the target language proxy class to an instance of the unique_ptr
which is passed to the wrapped function via std::move.
The proxy class has a new swigRelease() method which sets the
underlying C++ pointer for the proxy class to null, so working
in much the same way as std::unique_ptr::release(). Any attempt at
using the proxy class will be the same as if the delete() function
has been called on the proxy class. That is, using a C++ null pointer,
when a non-null pointer is usually expected.
This commit relies on the previous commit that uses std::move
on the temporary variable used for the wrapped function's input parameter
as std::unique_ptr is not copyable, it has move-only semantics.
The directorin typemaps in the director methods now use std::move on the
input parameter when copying the object from the stack to the heap prior
to the callback into the target language, thereby taking advantage of
move semantics if available.
