/*!
 * \file
 * \brief Optional API function macros
 *
 * Some Asterisk API functions are provided by loadable modules, thus,
 * they may or may not be available at run time depending on whether the
 * providing module has been loaded or not. In addition, there are some
 * modules that are consumers of these APIs that *optionally* use them; they
 * have only a part of their functionality dependent on the APIs, and can
 * provide the remainder even if the APIs are not available.
 *
 * An example can be found in agi.h:
 *
 * \code
 * AST_OPTIONAL_API(int, ast_agi_register, (struct ast_module *mod, agi_command *cmd),
 *                  { return AST_OPTIONAL_API_UNAVAILABLE; });
 * \endcode
 *
 * This defines the 'ast_agi_register' function as an optional API; if a
 * consumer of this API is loaded when there is no provider of it, then
 * calling this function will actually call the hidden stub, and return
 * the value AST_OPTIONAL_API_UNAVAILABLE. This allows the consumer to
 * safely know that the API is not available, and to avoid using any
 * other APIs from the not-present provider.
 *
 * In addition to this declaration in the header file, the actual definition of
 * the API function must use the AST_OPTIONAL_API_NAME macro to (possibly)
 * modify the real name of the API function, depending on the specific
 * implementation requirements. The corresponding example from res_agi.c:
 *
 * \code
 * int AST_OPTIONAL_API_NAME(ast_agi_register)(struct ast_module *mod, agi_command *cmd)
 * {
 * ...
 * }
 * \endcode
 *
 * In the module providing the API, the AST_OPTIONAL_API macro must
 * be informed that it should not build the hidden stub function or
 * apply special aliases to the function prototype; this can be done
 * by defining AST_API_MODULE just before including the header file
 * containing the AST_OPTIONAL_API macro calls.

 * functions that return a signed integer value and would not be
 * able to return such a value under normal circumstances.
