This removes the `Close() error` and replaces it with a more modern
Stream API that takes a context. This removes boilerplate and makes
integration with concurrent code easier. The only downside is that there
isn't an explicit cleanup step, but only one function was even using
that and it was possible to switch it to a defer in Stream.
This also renames the functions from polyfunc to just func which we
determine by API not naming.
This adds the requirement that all function implementations provider a
String() string method so that these can be used as vertices in the
pgraph library. If we eventually move to generics for the pgraph DAG,
then this might not matter, but it's not bad that these have names
either.
This ensures that docstring comments are wrapped to 80 chars. ffrank
seemed to be making this mistake far too often, and it's a silly thing
to look for manually. As it turns out, I've made it too, as have many
others. Now we have a test that checks for most cases. There are still a
few stray cases that aren't checked automatically, but this can be
improved upon if someone is motivated to do so.
Before anyone complains about the 80 character limit: this only checks
docstring comments, not source code length or inline source code
comments. There's no excuse for having docstrings that are badly
reflowed or over 80 chars, particularly if you have an automated test.
This unbreaks the mcl bindata code. Of course we could change the parser
to allow this prefix, but this is cleaner. The packages still have a
core prefix, which it seems we could also remove, but this isn't
particularly important for anything.
