ce7024fdf5 Fix linker issue with move constructors on MSVC
Fixes the issue as described in the comments of commit e27ea47. This
just adds `enable_if_t<std::is_move_constructible<T>::value>` to
`make_move_constructor`. The change fixes MSVC and is harmless with
other compilers.

24dec80b44 Help CLion IDE evaluate PYBIND11_NUMPY_DTYPE
CLion slows to a crawl when evaluating the intricate `PYBIND11_NUMPY_DTYPE`
macro. This commit replaces the macro cascade with a simple `(void)0`
to ease IDE evaluation.

e45c211497 Support multiple inheritance from python
This commit allows multiple inheritance of pybind11 classes from
Python, e.g.

    class MyType(Base1, Base2):
        def __init__(self):
            Base1.__init__(self)
            Base2.__init__(self)

where Base1 and Base2 are pybind11-exported classes.

This requires collapsing the various builtin base objects
(pybind11_object_56, ...) introduced in 2.1 into a single
pybind11_object of a fixed size; this fixed size object allocates enough
space to contain either a simple object (one base class & small* holder
instance), or a pointer to a new allocation that can contain an
arbitrary number of base classes and holders, with holder size
unrestricted.

* "small" here means having a sizeof() of at most 2 pointers, which is
enough to fit unique_ptr (sizeof is 1 ptr) and shared_ptr (sizeof is 2
ptrs).

To minimize the performance impact, this repurposes
`internals::registered_types_py` to store a vector of pybind-registered
base types.  For direct-use pybind types (e.g. the `PyA` for a C++ `A`)
this is simply storing the same thing as before, but now in a vector;
for Python-side inherited types, the map lets us avoid having to do a
base class traversal as long as we've seen the class before.  The
change to vector is needed for multiple inheritance: Python types
inheriting from multiple registered bases have one entry per base.

caedf74a89 Fix py::make_iterator's __next__() for past-the-end calls
Fixes #896.

From Python docs: "Once an iterator’s `__next__()` method raises
`StopIteration`, it must continue to do so on subsequent calls.
Implementations that do not obey this property are deemed broken."

74b501cd85 Fix passing in utf8 encoded strings with python 2
Passing utf8 encoded strings from python to a C++ function taking a
std::string was broken.  The previous version was trying to call
'PyUnicode_FromObject' on this data, which failed to convert the string
to unicode with the default ascii codec. Also this incurs an unnecessary
conversion to unicode for data this is immediately converted back to
utf8.

Fix by treating python 2 strings the same python 3 bytes objects, and just
copying over the data if possible.

libc++ 3.8 (and possibly others--including the derived version on OS X),

4edb1ce20c Destroy internals if created during Py_Finalize()
Py_Finalize could potentially invoke code that calls `get_internals()`,
which could create a new internals object if one didn't exist.
`finalize_interpreter()` didn't catch this because it only used the
pre-finalize interpreter pointer status; if this happens, it results in
the internals pointer not being properly destroyed with the interpreter,
which leaks, and also causes a `get_internals()` under a future
interpreter to return an internals object that is wrong in various ways.

91bbe2f2e5 Explicitly define copy/move constructors for accessor
`accessor` currently relies on an implicit default copy constructor, but that is deprecated in C++11 when a copy assignment operator is present and can, in some cases, raise deprecation warnings (see #888).  This commit explicitly specifies the default copy constructor and also adds a default move constructor.

acedd6c70c std::reference_wrapper: non-generic types; no None
This reimplements the std::reference_wrapper<T> caster to be a shell
around the underlying T caster (rather than assuming T is a generic
type), which lets it work for things like `std::reference_wrapper<int>`
or anything else custom type caster with a lvalue cast operator.

This also makes it properly fail when None is provided, just as an
ordinary lvalue reference argument would similarly fail.

This also adds a static assert to test that T has an appropriate type
caster.  It triggers for casters like `std::pair`, which have
return-by-value cast operators.  (In theory this could be supported by
storing a local temporary for such types, but that's beyond the scope
of this PR).

This also replaces `automatic` or `take_ownership` return value policies
with `automatic_reference` as taking ownership of a reference inside a
reference_wrapper is not valid.

443ab5946b Replace PYBIND11_PLUGIN with PYBIND11_MODULE
This commit also adds `doc()` to `object_api` as a shortcut for the
`attr("__doc__")` accessor.

The module macro changes from:
```c++
PYBIND11_PLUGIN(example) {
    pybind11::module m("example", "pybind11 example plugin");
    m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
    return m.ptr();
}
```

to:

```c++
PYBIND11_MODULE(example, m) {
    m.doc() = "pybind11 example plugin";
    m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
}
```

Using the old macro results in a deprecation warning. The warning
actually points to the `pybind11_init` function (since attributes
don't bind to macros), but the message should be quite clear:
"PYBIND11_PLUGIN is deprecated, use PYBIND11_MODULE".

46dbee7d42 Avoid explicitly resetting a std::[experimental::]optional
Now that #851 has removed all multiple uses of a caster, it can just use
the default-constructed value with needing a reset. This fixes two
issues:

1. With std::experimental::optional (at least under GCC 5.4), the `= {}`
would construct an instance of the optional type and then move-assign
it, which fails if the value type isn't move-assignable.

2. With older versions of Boost, the `= {}` could fail because it is
ambiguous, allowing construction of either `boost::none` or the value
type.

6a0f6c40cd Fix quadratic-time behaviour of vector extend
The "extend" method for vectors defined in stl_bind.h used `reserve` to
allocate space for the extra growth. While this can sometimes make a
constant-factor improvement in performance, it can also cause
construction of a vector by repeated extension to take quadratic rather
than linear time, as memory is reallocated in small increments rather
than on an exponential schedule. For example, this Python code would
take time proportional to the square of the trip count:

```python
a = VectorInt([1, 2, 3])
b = VectorInt()
for i in range(100000):
    b.extend(a)
```

This commit removes the `reserve` call. The alternative would be to try
to add some smarter heuristics, but the standard library may well have
its own heuristics (the iterators are random access iterators, so it can
easily determine the number of items being added) and trying to add more
heuristics on top of that seems like a bad idea.

f3ce00eaed vectorize: pass-through of non-vectorizable args
This extends py::vectorize to automatically pass through
non-vectorizable arguments.  This removes the need for the documented
"explicitly exclude an argument" workaround.

Vectorization now applies to arithmetic, std::complex, and POD types,
passed as plain value or by const lvalue reference (previously only
pass-by-value types were supported).  Non-const lvalue references and
any other types are passed through as-is.

Functions with rvalue reference arguments (whether vectorizable or not)
are explicitly prohibited: an rvalue reference is inherently not
something that can be passed multiple times and is thus unsuitable to
being in a vectorized function.

The vectorize returned value is also now more sensitive to inputs:
previously it would return by value when all inputs are of size 1; this
is now amended to having all inputs of size 1 *and* 0 dimensions.  Thus
if you pass in, for example, [[1]], you get back a 1x1, 2D array, while
previously you got back just the resulting single value.

Vectorization of member function specializations is now also supported
via `py::vectorize(&Class::method)`; this required passthrough support
for the initial object pointer on the wrapping function pointer.

41f8da4a95 array_t: make c_style/f_style work for array creation
Currently if you construct an `array_t<T, array::f_style>` with a shape
but not strides you get a C-style array; the only way to get F-style
strides was to calculate the strides manually.  This commit fixes that
by adding logic to use f_style strides when the flag is set.

This also simplifies the existing c_style stride logic.

813d7e8687 Add movable cast support to type casters
This commit allows type_casters to allow their local values to be moved
away, rather than copied, when the type caster instance itself is an rvalue.

This only applies (automatically) to type casters using
PYBIND11_TYPE_CASTER; the generic type type casters don't own their own
pointer, and various value casters (e.g. std::string, std::pair,
arithmetic types) already cast to an rvalue (i.e. they return by value).

This updates various calling code to attempt to get a movable value
whenever the value is itself coming from a type caster about to be
destroyed: for example, when constructing an std::pair or various stl.h
containers.  For types that don't support value moving, the cast_op
falls back to an lvalue cast.

There wasn't an obvious place to add the tests, so I added them to
test_copy_move_policies, but also renamed it to drop the _policies as it
now tests more than just policies.

b8ac438386 Use dynamic cast for shared_from_this holder init
Using a dynamic_cast instead of a static_cast is needed to safely cast
from a base to a derived type.  The previous static_pointer_cast isn't
safe, however, when downcasting (and fails to compile when downcasting
with virtual inheritance).

Switching this to always use a dynamic_pointer_cast shouldn't incur any
additional overhead when a static_pointer_cast is safe (i.e. when
upcasting, or self-casting): compilers don't need RTTI checks in those
cases.

acad05cb13 Fix /= operator under Python 3
The Python method for /= was set as `__idiv__`, which should be
`__itruediv__` under Python 3.

This wasn't totally broken in that without it defined, Python constructs
a new object by calling __truediv__.  The operator tests, however,
didn't actually test the /= operator: when I added it, I saw an extra
construction, leading to the problem.  This commit also includes tests
for the previously untested *= operator, and adds some element-wise
vector multiplication and division operators.

93e3eac6f9 Defer None loading to second pass
Many of our `is_none()` checks in type caster loading return true, but
this should really be considered a deferral so that, for example, an
overload with a `py::none` argument would win over one that takes
`py::none` as a null option.

This keeps None-accepting for the `!convert` pass only for std::optional
and void casters.  (The `char` caster already deferred None; this just
extends that behaviour to other casters).

There's no particular reason that this operator needs to be a friend
function: this commit changes it to an rvalue-context member function
operator, which avoids the warning.

b82c0f0a2d Allow std::complex field with PYBIND11_NUMPY_DTYPE (#831)
This exposed a few underlying issues:

1. is_pod_struct was too strict to allow this. I've relaxed it to
require only trivially copyable and standard layout, rather than POD
(which additionally requires a trivial constructor, which std::complex
violates).

2. format_descriptor<std::complex<T>>::format() returned numpy format
strings instead of PEP3118 format strings, but register_dtype
feeds format codes of its fields to _dtype_from_pep3118. I've changed it
to return PEP3118 format codes. format_descriptor is a public type, so
this may be considered an incompatible change.

3. register_structured_dtype tried to be smart about whether to mark
fields as unaligned (with ^). However, it's examining the C++ alignment,
rather than what numpy (or possibly PEP3118) thinks the alignment should
be. For complex values those are different. I've made it mark all fields
as ^ unconditionally, which should always be safe even if they are
aligned, because we explicitly mark the padding.

ca0e82b79f Update PYBIND11_CPP1{4,7} macros for MSVC
The PYBIND11_CPP14 macro started out as a guard for the compile-time
path code in `descr.h`, but has since come to mean other things.  This
means that while the `descr.h` check has just checked the
`PYBIND11_CPP14` macro, various other places now check `PYBIND11_CPP14
|| _MSC_VER`.  This reverses that by now setting the CPP14 macro when
MSVC is trying to support C++14, but disabling the `descr.h` C++14 code
(which still fails under MSVC 2017).

The CPP17 macro also gets enabled when MSVC 2017 is compiling with
/std:c++latest (the default is /std:c++14), which enables
`std::optional` and `std::variant` support under MSVC.

b68959e822 Use numpy rather than Eigen for copying
We're current copy by creating an Eigen::Map into the input numpy
array, then assigning that to the basic eigen type, effectively having
Eigen do the copy.  That doesn't work for negative strides, though:
Eigen doesn't allow them.

This commit makes numpy do the copying instead by allocating the eigen
type, then having numpy copy from the input array into a numpy reference
into the eigen object's data.  This also saves a copy when type
conversion is required: numpy can do the conversion on-the-fly as part
of the copy.

Finally this commit also makes non-reference parameters respect the
convert flag, declining the load when called in a noconvert pass with a
convertible, but non-array input or an array with the wrong dtype.

627da3f135 Making a copy when casting a numpy array with negative strides to Eigen.
`EigenConformable::stride_compatible` returns false if the strides are
negative. In this case, do not use `EigenConformable::stride`, as it
is {0,0}. We cannot write negative strides in this element, as Eigen
will throw an assertion if we do.

The `type_caster` specialization for regular, dense Eigen matrices now
does a second `array_t::ensure` to copy data in case of negative strides.
I'm not sure that this is the best way to implement this.

I have added "TODO" tags linking these changes to Eigen bug #747, which,
when fixed, will allow Eigen to accept negative strides.

a01b6b805c functional: support bound methods
If a bound std::function is invoked with a bound method, the implicit
bound self is lost because we use `detail::get_function` to unbox the
function.  This commit amends the code to use py::function and only
unboxes in the special is-really-a-c-function case.  This makes bound
methods stay bound rather than unbinding them by forcing extraction of
the c function.

51d18aa252 Fix ambiguous initialize_list arguments
This removes the convert-from-arithemtic-scalar constructor of
any_container as it can result in ambiguous calls, as in:

    py::array_t<float>({ 1, 2 })

which could be intepreted as either of:

    py::array_t<float>(py::array_t<float>(1, 2))
    py::array_t<float>(py::detail::any_container({ 1, 2 }))

Removing the convert-from-arithmetic constructor reduces the number of
implicit conversions, avoiding the ambiguity for array and array_t.
This also re-adds the array/array_t constructors taking a scalar
argument for backwards compatibility.

ce494d65de Add numpy version check (#819)
The numpy API constants can check past the end of the API array if the
numpy version is too old thus causing a segfault.  The current list of
functions requires numpy >= 1.7.0, so this adds a check and exception if
numpy is too old.

The added feature version API element was added in numpy 1.4.0, so this
could still segfault if loaded in 1.3.0 or earlier, but given that
1.4.0 was released at the end of 2009, it seems reasonable enough to
not worry about that case.  (1.7.0 was released in early 2013).

1f8a100d38 Track base class pointers of instances
This commits adds base class pointers of offset base classes (i.e. due
to multiple inheritance) to `registered_instances` so that if such a
pointer is returned we properly recognize it as an existing instance.

Without this, returning a base class pointer will cast to the existing
instance if the pointer happens to coincide with the instance pointer,
but constructs a new instance (quite possibly with a segfault, if
ownership is applied) for unequal base class pointers due to multiple
inheritance.

14e70650fe Fix downcasting of base class pointers
When we are returned a base class pointer (either directly or via
shared_from_this()) we detect its runtime type (using `typeid`), then
end up essentially reinterpret_casting the pointer to the derived type.
This is invalid when the base class pointer was a non-first base, and we
end up with an invalid pointer.  We could dynamic_cast to the
most-derived type, but if *that* type isn't pybind11-registered, the
resulting pointer given to the base `cast` implementation isn't necessarily valid
to be reinterpret_cast'ed back to the backup type.

This commit removes the "backup" type argument from the many-argument
`cast(...)` and instead does the derived-or-pointer type decision and
type lookup in type_caster_base, where the dynamic_cast has to be to
correctly get the derived pointer, but also has to do the type lookup to
ensure that we don't pass the wrong (derived) pointer when the backup
type (i.e. the type caster intrinsic type) pointer is needed.

Since the lookup is needed before calling the base cast(), this also
changes the input type to a detail::type_info rather than doing a
(second) lookup in cast().

929009954b Expose more instance management functions
This breaks up the instance management functions in class_support.h a
little bit so that other pybind11 code can use it.  In particular:

- added make_new_instance() which does what pybind11_object_new does,
  but also allows instance allocation without `value` allocation.  This
  lets `cast.h` use the same instance allocation rather than having its
  own separate implementation.
- instance registration is now moved to a
  `register_instance()`/deregister_instance()` pair (rather than having
  individual code add or remove things from `registered_instances`
  directory).
- clear_instance() does everything `pybind11_object_dealloc()` needs
  except for the deallocation; this is helpful for factory construction
  which needs to be able to replace the internals of an instance without
  deallocating it.
- clear_instance() now also calls `dealloc` when `holder_constructed`
  is true, even if `value` is false.  This can happen in factory
  construction when the pointer is moved from one instance to another,
  but the holder itself is only copied (i.e. for a shared_ptr holder).

201796d94f Make any_container implicitly constructible from arithmetic values
This further reduces the constructors required in buffer_info/numpy by
removing the need for the constructors that take a single size_t and
just forward it on via an initializer_list to the container-accepting
constructor.

Unfortunately, in `array` one of the constructors runs into an ambiguity
problem with the deprecated `array(handle, bool)` constructor (because
both the bool constructor and the any_container constructor involve an
implicit conversion, so neither has precedence), so a forwarding
constructor is kept there (until the deprecated constructor is
eventually removed).

5f38386293 Accept abitrary containers and iterators for shape/strides
This adds support for constructing `buffer_info` and `array`s using
arbitrary containers or iterator pairs instead of requiring a vector.

This is primarily needed by PR #782 (which makes strides signed to
properly support negative strides, and will likely also make shape and
itemsize to avoid mixed integer issues), but also needs to preserve
backwards compatibility with 2.1 and earlier which accepts the strides
parameter as a vector of size_t's.

Rather than adding nearly duplicate constructors for each stride-taking
constructor, it seems nicer to simply allow any type of container (or
iterator pairs).  This works by replacing the existing vector arguments
with a new `detail::any_container` class that handles implicit
conversion of arbitrary containers into a vector of the desired type.
It can also be explicitly instantiated with a pair of iterators (e.g.
by passing {begin, end} instead of the container).

6db60cd945 Deprecated borrowed/stolen for borrowed_t{}/stolen_t{} (#771)
The constexpr static instances can cause linking failures if the
compiler doesn't optimize away the reference, as reported in #770.

There's no particularly nice way of fixing this in C++11/14: we can't
inline definitions to match the declaration aren't permitted for
non-templated static variables (C++17 *does* allows "inline" on
variables, but that obviously doesn't help us.)

One solution that could work around it is to add an extra inherited
subclass to `object`'s hierarchy, but that's a bit of a messy solution
and was decided against in #771 in favour of just deprecating (and
eventually dropping) the constexpr statics.

The extends the previous unchecked support with the ability to

423a49b8be array: add unchecked access via proxy object
This adds bounds-unchecked access to arrays through a `a.unchecked<Type,
Dimensions>()` method.  (For `array_t<T>`, the `Type` template parameter
is omitted).  The mutable version (which requires the array have the
`writeable` flag) is available as `a.mutable_unchecked<...>()`.

Specifying the Dimensions as a template parameter allows storage of an
std::array; having the strides and sizes stored that way (as opposed to
storing a copy of the array's strides/shape pointers) allows the
compiler to make significant optimizations of the shape() method that it
can't make with a pointer; testing with nested loops of the form:

    for (size_t i0 = 0; i0 < r.shape(0); i0++)
        for (size_t i1 = 0; i1 < r.shape(1); i1++)
            ...
                r(i0, i1, ...) += 1;

over a 10 million element array gives around a 25% speedup (versus using
a pointer) for the 1D case, 33% for 2D, and runs more than twice as fast
with a 5D array.

b0292c1df3 vectorize: trivial handling for F-order arrays
This extends the trivial handling to support trivial handling for
Fortran-order arrays (i.e. column major): if inputs aren't all
C-contiguous, but *are* all F-contiguous, the resulting array will be
F-contiguous and we can do trivial processing.

For anything else (e.g. C-contiguous, or inputs requiring non-trivial
processing), the result is in (numpy-default) C-contiguous layout.

ae5a8f7eb3 Stop forcing c-contiguous in py::vectorize
The only part of the vectorize code that actually needs c-contiguous is
the "trivial" broadcast; for non-trivial arguments, the code already
uses strides properly (and so handles C-style, F-style, neither, slices,
etc.)

This commit rewrites `broadcast` to additionally check for C-contiguous
storage, then takes off the `c_style` flag for the arguments, which
will keep the functionality more or less the same, except for no longer
requiring an array copy for non-c-contiguous input arrays.

Additionally, if we're given a singleton slice (e.g. a[0::4, 0::4] for a
4x4 or smaller array), we no longer fail triviality because the trivial
code path never actually uses the strides on a singleton.

efa8726ff7 Eigen: don't require conformability on length-1 dimensions
Fixes #738

The current check for conformability fails when given a 2D, 1xN or Nx1
input to a row-major or column-major, respectively, Eigen::Ref, leading
to a copy-required state in the type_caster, but this later failed
because the copy was also non-conformable because it had the same shape
and strides (because a 1xN or Nx1 is both F and C contiguous).

In such cases we can safely ignore the stride on the "1" dimension since
it'll never be used: only the "N" dimension stride needs to match the
Eigen::Ref stride, which both fixes the non-conformable copy problem,
but also avoids a copy entirely as long as the "N" dimension has a
compatible stride.

ee9296395d Call PyUnicode_DecodeUTF* directly
Some versions of Python 2.7 reportedly (#713) have issues with
PyUnicode_Decode being passed the encoding string, so just skip it
entirely by calling the PyUnicode_DecodeUTF* function directly.  This
will also be slightly more efficient by avoiding having to check the
encoding string, and (for python 2) going through the unicode class's
decode (python 3 fast-tracks this for all utf-{8,16,32} encodings;
python 2 only fast-tracked for the exact string "utf-8", which we
weren't passing anyway (we had "utf8")).

This doesn't work for PyPy, however: its `PyUnicode_DecodeUTF{8,16,32}`
appear rather broken: the UTF8 one segfaults, while the 16/32 require
recasting into a non-const `char *` (and might segfault; I didn't get
far enough to find out).  Just avoid the whole thing by keeping the
encoding-passed-as-string version for PyPy, which seems to work
reliably.

10d1304806 Fix extra docstring newlines under options.disable_function_signatures()
When using pybind::options to disable function signatures, user-defined
docstrings only get appended if they exist, but newlines were getting
appended unconditionally, so the docstring could end up with blank lines
(depending on which overloads, in particular, provided docstrings).

This commit suppresses the empty lines by only adding newlines for
overloads when needed.

f7685826e2 Handle all py::iterator errors
Before this, `py::iterator` didn't do any error handling, so code like:
```c++
for (auto item : py::int_(1)) {
    // ...
}
```
would just silently skip the loop. The above now throws `TypeError` as
expected. This is a breaking behavior change, but any code which relied
on the silent skip was probably broken anyway.

Also, errors returned by `PyIter_Next()` are now properly handled.

17d0283eca Eigen<->numpy referencing support
This commit largely rewrites the Eigen dense matrix support to avoid
copying in many cases: Eigen arguments can now reference numpy data, and
numpy objects can now reference Eigen data (given compatible types).

Eigen::Ref<...> arguments now also make use of the new `convert`
argument use (added in PR #634) to avoid conversion, allowing
`py::arg().noconvert()` to be used when binding a function to prohibit
copying when invoking the function.  Respecting `convert` also means
Eigen overloads that avoid copying will be preferred during overload
resolution to ones that require copying.

This commit also rewrites the Eigen documentation and test suite to
explain and test the new capabilities.

546f6fce1a Add an ability to avoid forcing rvp::move
Eigen::Ref objects, when returned, are almost always returned as
rvalues; what's important is the data they reference, not the outer
shell, and so we want to be able to use `::copy`,
`::reference_internal`, etc. to refer to the data the Eigen::Ref
references (in the following commits), rather than the Eigen::Ref
instance itself.

This moves the policy override into a struct so that code that wants to
avoid it (or wants to provide some other Return-type-conditional
override) can create a specialization of
return_value_policy_override<Return> in order to override the override.

This lets an Eigen::Ref-returning function be bound with `rvp::copy`,
for example, to specify that the data should be copied into a new numpy
array rather than referenced, or `rvp::reference_internal` to indicate
that it should be referenced, but a keep-alive used (actually, we used
the array's `base` rather than a py::keep_alive in such a case, but it
accomplishes the same thing).

f86dddf7ba array: fix base handling
numpy arrays aren't currently properly setting base: by setting `->base`
directly, the base doesn't follow what numpy expects and documents (that
is, following chained array bases to the root array).

This fixes the behaviour by using numpy's PyArray_SetBaseObject to set
the base instead, and then updates the tests to reflect the fixed
behaviour.

d9d224f288 Eigen: fix partially-fixed matrix conversion
Currently when we do a conversion between a numpy array and an Eigen
Vector, we allow the conversion only if the Eigen type is a
compile-time vector (i.e. at least one dimension is fixed at 1 at
compile time), or if the type is dynamic on *both* dimensions.

This means we can run into cases where MatrixXd allow things that
conforming, compile-time sizes does not: for example,
`Matrix<double,4,Dynamic>` is currently not allowed, even when assigning
from a 4-element vector, but it *is* allowed for a
`Matrix<double,Dynamic,Dynamic>`.

This commit also reverts the current behaviour of using the matrix's
storage order to determine the structure when the Matrix is fully
dynamic (i.e. in both dimensions).  Currently we assign to an eigen row
if the storage order is row-major, and column otherwise: this seems
wrong (the storage order has nothing to do with the shape!).  While
numpy doesn't distinguish between a row/column vector, Eigen does, but
it makes more sense to consistently choose one than to produce
something with a different shape based on the intended storage layout.

restores the previous std::string logic by only allowing actual unicode

08cbe8dfed Make all classes with the same instance size derive from a common base
In order to fully satisfy Python's inheritance type layout requirements,
all types should have a common 'solid' base. A solid base is one which
has the same instance size as the derived type (not counting the space
required for the optional `dict_ptr` and `weakrefs_ptr`). Thus, `object`
does not qualify as a solid base for pybind11 types and this can lead to
issues with multiple inheritance.

To get around this, new base types are created: one per unique instance
size. There is going to be very few of these bases. They ensure Python's
MRO checks will pass when multiple bases are involved.

c91f8bd627 Reimplement static properties by extending PyProperty_Type
Instead of creating a new unique metaclass for each type, the builtin
`property` type is subclassed to support static properties. The new
setter/getters always pass types instead of instances in their `self`
argument. A metaclass is still required to support this behavior, but
it doesn't store any data anymore, so a new one doesn't need to be
created for each class. There is now only one common metaclass which
is shared by all pybind11 types.

c7fcde7c76 Fixed compilation error when binding function accepting some forms of std::function (#689)
* Fixed compilation error when defining function accepting some forms of std::function.

The compilation error happens only when the functional.h header is
present, and the build is done in debug mode, with NDEBUG being
undefined.  In addition, the std::function must accept an abstract
base class by reference.

The compilation error occurred in cast.h, when trying to construct a
std::tuple<AbstractBase>, rather than a std::tuple<AbstractBase&>.
This was caused by functional.h using std::move rather than
std::forward, changing the signature of the function being used.

This commit contains the fix, along with a test that exhibits the
issue when compiled in debug mode without the fix applied.

* Moved new std::function tests into test_callbacks, added callback_with_movable test.

1d7998e333 Revert noexcept deduction in favour of better SFINAE on lambda functions (#677)
noexcept deduction, added in PR #555, doesn't work with clang's
-std=c++1z; and while it works with g++, it isn't entirely clear to me
that it is required to work in C++17.

What should work, however, is that C++17 allows implicit conversion of a
`noexcept(true)` function pointer to a `noexcept(false)` (i.e.  default,
noexcept-not-specified) function pointer.  That was breaking in pybind11
because the cpp_function template used for lambdas provided a better
match (i.e. without requiring an implicit conversion), but it then
failed.

This commit takes a different approach of using SFINAE on the lambda
function to prevent it from matching a non-lambda object, which then
gets implicit conversion from a `noexcept` function pointer to a
`noexcept(false)` function pointer.  This much nicer solution also gets
rid of the C++17 NOEXCEPT macros, and works in both clang and g++.

11a337f16f Unicode fixes and docs (#624)
* Propagate unicode conversion failure

If returning a std::string with invalid utf-8 data, we currently fail
with an uninformative TypeError instead of propagating the
UnicodeDecodeError that Python sets on failure.

* Add support for u16/u32strings and literals

This adds support for wchar{16,32}_t character literals and the
associated std::u{16,32}string types.  It also folds the
character/string conversion into a single type_caster template, since
the type casters for string and wstring were mostly the same anyway.

* Added too-long and too-big character conversion errors

With this commit, when casting to a single character, as opposed to a
C-style string, we make sure the input wasn't a multi-character string
or a single character with codepoint too large for the character type.

This also changes the character cast op to CharT instead of CharT& (we
need to be able to return a temporary decoded char value, but also
because there's little gained by bothering with an lvalue return here).

Finally it changes the char caster to 'has-a-string-caster' instead of
'is-a-string-caster' because, with the cast_op change above, there's
nothing at all gained from inheritance.  This also lets us remove the
`success` from the string caster (which was only there for the char
caster) into the char caster itself.  (I also renamed it to 'none' and
inverted its value to better reflect its purpose).  The None -> nullptr
loading also now takes place only under a `convert = true` load pass.
Although it's unlikely that a function taking a char also has overloads
that can take a None, it seems marginally more correct to treat it as a
conversion.

This commit simplifies the size assumptions about character sizes with
static_asserts to back them up.

d534bd670e Fix handling of Python exceptions during module initialization (#657)
Fixes #656.

Before this commit, the problematic sequence was:

1. `catch (const std::exception &e)` gets a Python exception,
   i.e. `error_already_set`.
2. `PyErr_SetString(PyExc_ImportError, e.what())` sets an `ImportError`.
3. `~error_already_set()` now runs, but `gil_scoped_acquire` fails due
   to an unhandled `ImportError` (which was just set in step 2).

This commit adds a separate catch block for Python exceptions which just
clears the Python error state a little earlier and replaces it with an
`ImportError`, thus making sure that there is only a single Python
exception in flight at a time. (After step 2 in the sequence above,
there were effectively two Python expections set.)

e550589b42 Prefer non-converting argument overloads
This changes the function dispatching code for overloaded functions into
a two-pass procedure where we first try all overloads with
`convert=false` for all arguments.  If no function calls succeeds in the
first pass, we then try a second pass where we allow arguments to have
`convert=true` (unless, of course, the argument was explicitly specified
with `py::arg().noconvert()`).

For non-overloaded methods, the two-pass procedure is skipped (we just
make the overload-allowed call).  The second pass is also skipped if it
would result in the same thing (i.e. where all arguments are
`.noconvert()` arguments).

abc29cad02 Add support for non-converting arguments
This adds support for controlling the `convert` flag of arguments
through the py::arg annotation.  This then allows arguments to be
flagged as non-converting, which the type_caster is able to use to
request different behaviour.

Currently, AFAICS `convert` is only used for type converters of regular
pybind11-registered types; all of the other core type_casters ignore it.
We can, however, repurpose it to control internal conversion of
converters like Eigen and `array`: most usefully to give callers a way
to disable the conversion that would otherwise occur when a
`Eigen::Ref<const Eigen::Matrix>` argument is passed a numpy array that
requires conversion (either because it has an incompatible stride or the
wrong dtype).

Specifying a noconvert looks like one of these:

    m.def("f1", &f, "a"_a.noconvert() = "default"); // Named, default, noconvert
    m.def("f2", &f, "a"_a.noconvert()); // Named, no default, no converting
    m.def("f3", &f, py::arg().noconvert()); // Unnamed, no default, no converting

(The last part--being able to declare a py::arg without a name--is new:
previous py::arg() only accepted named keyword arguments).

Such an non-convert argument is then passed `convert = false` by the
type caster when loading the argument.  Whether this has an effect is up
to the type caster itself, but as mentioned above, this would be
extremely helpful for the Eigen support to give a nicer way to specify
a "no-copy" mode than the custom wrapper in the current PR, and
moreover isn't an Eigen-specific hack.
