We don't have this convention in other files either so let's not break
the consistency. We have the AUTHORS file and the git commit history to
get this kind of info anyway.

Is map_ap_output supposed to be the inverse of map_ap_parse? Why const
uint8_t * for parse but GString * for output? Also (assuming that they
really are supposed to be inverses) encode/decode would be clearer.

In a way having these generic get/set functions keeps the API small and
clean, but then again there are only four possible types: 1, 2 and 4
byte uints and strings. If there were get_u32, get_string, set_string,
etc, you wouldn't e.g. need temporary variables to pass uints to the set
functions but could pass constants directly and you'd also get the
compiler to do some type checking for you (of course you still need to
have an internal table to check which type a specific tag should have).
Btw, I assume that you've planned the API to take care of the big-endian
conversion internally?

Where do you plan to use this value?
Since we now have unit/* in place it'd be nice if you could also add
unit tests for this API as you go along implementing it.
