This was causing a ninja issue where the native headers were always
being generated because io.github.hse-project.hse_Hse.h was being
expected, but io.github.hse_project.hse_Hse.h was actually generated.
Instead of using FeatureNew/FeatureDeprecated in the module.
The goal here is to be able to handle information about modules in a
single place, instead of having to handle it separately. Each module
simply defines some metadata, and then the interpreter handles the rest.
These are only used for type checking, so don't bother importing them at
runtime.
Generally add future annotations at the same time, to make sure that
existing uses of these imports don't need to be quoted.
Using future annotations, type annotations become strings at runtime and
don't impact performance. This is not possible to do with T.cast though,
because it is a function argument instead of an annotation.
Quote the type argument everywhere in order to have the same effect as
future annotations. This also allows linters to better detect in some
cases that a given import is typing-only.
After implementing a much more extensive Java native module than what
currently exists in the tests, I found shortcomings.
1. You need to be able to pass multiple Java files.
2. Meson needs more information to better track the generated native
headers.
3. Meson wasn't tracking the header files generated from inner classes.
This new function should fix all the issues the old function had with
room to grow should more functionality need to be added. What I
implemented here in this new function is essentially what I have done in
the Heterogeneous-Memory Storage Engine's Java bindings.
Because we don't want to pass the Interpreter kwargs into the build
layer. This turned out to be a mega commit, as there's really on elegant
way to make this change in an incremental way. On the nice side, mypy
made this change super easy, as nearly all of the calls to
`CustomTarget` are fully type checked!
It also turns out that we're not handling install_tags in custom_target
correctly, since we're not converting the boolean values into Optional
values!
