[vlc-devel] [RFC] Send warning on bad vlc_object_(hold|warning) usage

[Pierre d'Herbemont]

As discussed on this mailing list, this API is working on a subclass  
basis, and only hold the vlc_object_t data, and may return invalid  
subclass data.

More details in the commit log.

I think the approach is good enough to force us to review the current  
usage we do of vlc_object_(hold|warning), and to make sure we don't  
introduce any new bad usage, by clarifying the API.

This patch as such requires more work afterwards.
