/* Implementation principle used in this unit:

   For our purposes, the meat of the varobj object is made of two
   elements: The varobj's (struct) value, and the varobj's (struct)
   type.  In most situations, the varobj has a non-NULL value, and
   the type becomes redundant, as it can be directly derived from
   the value.  In the initial implementation of this unit, most
   routines would only take a value, and return a value.

   But there are many situations where it is possible for a varobj
   to have a NULL value.  For instance, if the varobj becomes out of
   scope.  Or better yet, when the varobj is the child of another
   NULL pointer varobj.  In that situation, we must rely on the type
   instead of the value to create the child varobj.

   That's why most functions below work with a (value, type) pair.
   The value may or may not be NULL.  But the type is always expected
   to be set.  When the value is NULL, then we work with the type
   alone, and keep the value NULL.  But when the value is not NULL,
   then we work using the value, because it provides more information.
   But we still always set the type as well, even if that type could
   easily be derived from the value.  The reason behind this is that
   it allows the code to use the type without having to worry about
   it being set or not.  It makes the code clearer.  */
