/****************************************************************
 StgDictObject fields

 setfunc and getfunc is only set for simple data types, it is copied from the
 corresponding fielddesc entry.  These are functions to set and get the value
 in a memory block.
 They should probably by used by other types as well.

 proto is only used for Pointer and Array types - it points to the item type
 object.

 Probably all the magic ctypes methods (like from_param) should have C
 callable wrappers in the StgDictObject.  For simple data type, for example,
 the fielddesc table could have entries for C codec from_param functions or
 other methods as well, if a subtype overrides this method in Python at
 construction time, or assigns to it later, tp_setattro should update the
 StgDictObject function to a generic one.

 Currently, PyCFuncPtr types have 'converters' and 'checker' entries in their
 type dict.  They are only used to cache attributes from other entries, which
 is wrong.

 One use case is the .value attribute that all simple types have.  But some
 complex structures, like VARIANT, represent a single value also, and should
 have this attribute.

 Another use case is a _check_retval_ function, which is called when a ctypes
 type is used as return type of a function to validate and compute the return
 value.

 Common ctypes protocol:

  - setfunc: store a python value in a memory block
  - getfunc: convert data from a memory block into a python value

  - checkfunc: validate and convert a return value from a function call
  - toparamfunc: convert a python value into a function argument
