Convenient array & hash iterators & accessors

In http://svn.apache.org/r1664127 (very similar to the attached patch), I added some array & hash iterators & accessors to the 'move-tracking-2' branch so that I could use more compact iteration code (http://svn.apache.org/r1664285) and get an iteration pool 'for free' (http://svn.apache.org/r1664290). Is there any interest in using some of this on trunk? Here's a summary. Array: apr_array_header_t of pointers to objects, with   - Simpler syntax for operations such as make, get, set, push, pop.     - no need to specify the element type in these operations   - The get and set and iteration functions avoid the need to use the     non-type-safe APR_ARRAY_IDX. (It does not assert that the sizeof(type)     matches, let alone (type) itself. Note: When I inserted     "assert(sizeof(type)==array->elt_size)" in APR's version, the Subversion     test suite still passed, so that's good.)   - Shallow and deep duplicators for an array of simple or compound elements. Hash table: same as apr_hash_t but always with C-string keys. Iteration over an array or a hash shares these features:   - Convenience prioritized over speed (but still good speed).   - Easy access to this key and this value as iterator member variables.     - for an array: it->i and it->val     - for a hash: it->key and it->val (and it->klen for good measure)   - Templated iterator with parameterized element type.     - in an iterator declared as "SVN_ITER_T(svn_branch_family_t) *it;",       it->val has type "svn_branch_family_t *"     - in an iterator declared as "svn_iter_t *it;",       it->val has type "void *"   - Built-in, managed iterpool as an iterator member variable.     - just use it->iterpool; it is automatically created/cleared/destroyed   - Iteration in sorted order (optional).     - just use "for (SVN_ARRAY_ITER_SORTED(it, array, comparator, pool))"       instead of "for (SVN_ARRAY_ITER(it, array, pool))"; same for a hash Usage examples: -  outer_family->sub_families = apr_array_make(result_pool, 1, sizeof(void *)); +  outer_family->sub_families = svn_array_make(result_pool); -  APR_ARRAY_PUSH(outer_family->sub_families, void *) = family; +  SVN_ARRAY_PUSH(outer_family->sub_families) = family;    { -    apr_array_header_t *sub_families -      = svn_branch_family_get_children(family, scratch_pool); -    int f; +    SVN_ITER_T(svn_branch_family_t) *fi; -    for (f = 0; f < sub_families->nelts; f++) +    for (SVN_ARRAY_ITER(fi, svn_branch_family_get_children( +                              family, scratch_pool), scratch_pool))        { -        svn_branch_family_t *sub_family -          = APR_ARRAY_IDX(sub_families, f, svn_branch_family_t *); - -        SVN_ERR(family_list_branch_instances(rev_root, sub_family, recursive, +        SVN_ERR(family_list_branch_instances(rev_root, fi->val, recursive, -                                             verbose, scratch_pool)); -                                             verbose, fi->iterpool));        }    } - Julian
