From: Linus Arver <linusa@xxxxxxxxxx>
In 13211ae23f (trailer: separate public from internal portion of
trailer_iterator, 2023-09-09) we moved trailer_info behind an anonymous
struct to discourage use by trailer.h API users. However it still left
open the possibility of external use of trailer_info itself. Now that
there are no external users of trailer_info, we can make this struct
private.
Make this struct private by putting its definition inside trailer.c.
This has two benefits:
(1) it makes the surface area of the public facing
interface (trailer.h) smaller, and
(2) external API users are unable to peer inside this struct (because
it is only ever exposed as an opaque pointer).
This change exposes some deficiencies in the API, mainly with regard to
information about the location of the trailer block that was parsed.
Expose new API functions to access this information (needed by
builtin/interpret-trailers.c).
The idea in this patch to hide implementation details behind an "opaque
pointer" is also known as the "pimpl" (pointer to implementation) idiom
in C++ and is a common pattern in that language (where, for example,
abstract classes only have pointers to concrete classes).
However, the original inspiration to use this idiom does not come from
C++, but instead the book "C Interfaces and Implementations: Techniques
for Creating Reusable Software" [1]. This book recommends opaque
pointers as a good design principle for designing C libraries, using the
term "interface" as the functions defined in *.h (header) files and
"implementation" as the corresponding *.c file which define the
interfaces.
The book says this about opaque pointers:
... clients can manipulate such pointers freely, but they can’t
dereference them; that is, they can’t look at the innards of the
structure pointed to by them. Only the implementation has that
privilege. Opaque pointers hide representation details and help
catch errors.
In our case, "struct trailer_info" is now hidden from clients, and the
ways in which this opaque pointer can be used is limited to the richness
of the trailer.h file. In other words, trailer.h exclusively controls
exactly how "trailer_info" pointers are to be used.

Creating Reusable Software". Addison Wesley, 1997. p. 22
