view audioDB_API.h @ 404:1fb8bee777e5 api-inversion

Begin working towards inverting audioDB::insert() / audiodb_insert(). New data type audiodb_datum_t, roughly corresponding to a "track" in current audioDB parlance; it contains exactly the feature information and metadata to record. New function audiodb_insert_datum() to insert one of these audiodb_datum_t objects into the database; the intention is that not only can insertion of feature files be implemented in terms of this function, but that it will be a useful function in its own right, callable perhaps from PD, Max/MSP, and/or a VAMP plugin. This function is complicated enough that it actually gets a comment. Implement audioDB::insert() in terms of audiodb_insert_datum(), via a wrapper which handles the slightly wacky error/non-error case of attempting to insert features with a key that already exists in the database. Delete whole rafts of code. We can't quite delete everything because there's batchinsert / batchinsert_large_adb to sort out; the good news is that the batchinsert operation can simply be implemented as a loop around audiodb_insert_datum() without loss of efficiency. (There's also a stray extra audiodb_insert() in libtests/0027/, found through an earlier iteration of this patch.)
