We can pass name and contents by value to UnsavedFile::new which means that the calls to CString::new don't have to clone name and contents

Why? I don't get this. This is dead code and would trivially loop right?

actually let me do a change that could make this clearer.

so @emilio the idea is that if bindgen finds a static inline function and the static inline int foo() { return 42; }then bindgen would generate an extra headers file int foo_inlined()with a corresponding int foo_inlined() { return foo(); }then |

This adds a mechanism so `bindgen` is able to run `Bindings::generate` multiple times with the same user input if the `generate_static_inline` option is enabled and `GenerateError::ShouldRestart` is returned by `Bindings::generate`. This is done to eventually solve rust-lang#1090 which would require to check for any static inline functions and generate a new header file to be used as an extra input and run `Bindings::generate` again.
In some cases, like when processing headers with static inline functions, might be useful to have a mechanism to rerun Bindgen with the same options the user provided.
I'm opening this PR as a first step to solve #1090 and not make a hard to review and huge PR. The idea would be to run bindgen a first time to find any inlined functions, then generate a new
.hfile that wraps the inlined functions and finally run bindgen again using this generated file as an input.Blocked by: #2302
