Go, Guile, Racket, Scilab: Add throws typemaps for std::string so that
thrown string exception messages can be seen.
Test all language for std::string throws typemaps
and exception specifications for native types.
Now the raised exception contains the string value as the exception
message instead of just the C/C++ type of the exception.
R exceptions were completely swallowed beforehand
For implementing full move semantics when passing parameters by value.
Based on SWIGTYPE && and std::unique_ptr typemaps which implement move
semantics.
Added for all languages, but untested for: Go, Ocaml, R, Scilab (and
unlikely to be fully functional for same reasons as for std::unique_ptr
support).
Issue #999
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.
Particularly when using virtual inheritance as the pointers weren't
correctly upcast from derived class to base class when stored in the
base's proxy class.
Fixes commented out test code in cpp11_std_unique_ptr_runme
and li_std_auto_ptr_runme D tests.

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.

Performance optimisation for parameters passed by value that are C++11 movable.
Test copy constructor and assignment operator calls for movable types
Conflicts:
CHANGES.current
The C++ wrappers create a temporary variable for a parameter to be passed to a
function. This is initially default constructed and then copy assigned from the
instance being passed in from the target language. This is unchanged, however,
when the temporary variable is passed to wrapped function, it is now done using
std::move. If the type is move constructible, the move constructor will be used
instead of the copy constructor.
Note that the implementation calls std::move for all user-defined types
(non-primitive types passed by value), this excludes anything passed by pointer,
reference and arrays. It does also include any type that has not been
defined/parsed by SWIG, that is, unknown types. std::move is called via the
SWIG_STD_MOVE macro which only calls std::move for C++11 and later code.
The XML target language support is not in good shape and is likely to be
removed unless somebody steps up to bring it up to the expected standard
(it fails to even meet the criteria for "Experimental" currently).
Closes#2213
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.
Enhance SWIGTYPE "out" typemaps to use std::move when copying
objects, thereby making use of move semantics when wrapping a function returning
by value if the returned type supports move semantics.
Wrapping functions that return move only types 'by value' now work out the box
without having to provide custom typemaps.
The implementation removed all casts in the "out" typemaps to allow the compiler to
appropriately choose calling a move constructor, where possible, otherwise a copy
constructor. The implementation alsoand required modifying SwigValueWrapper to
change a cast operator from:
SwigValueWrapper::operator T&() const;
to
#if __cplusplus >=201103L
SwigValueWrapper::operator T&&() const;
#else
SwigValueWrapper::operator T&() const;
#endif
This is not backwards compatible for C++11 and later when using the valuewrapper feature
if a cast is explicitly being made in user supplied "out" typemaps. Suggested change
in custom "out" typemaps for C++11 and later code:
1. Try remove the cast altogether to let the compiler use an appropriate implicit cast.
2. Change the cast, for example, from static_cast<X &> to static_cast<X &&>, using the
__cplusplus macro if all versions of C++ need to be supported.
