util-src: Use the luaL_pushfail API added in Lua 5.4 to highlight all failure conditions Actually just an alias of pushnil, but it does make it more obvious where the failure conditions are, which is good for readability.

-- Storage Interface API Description
--
-- This is written as a TypedLua description

-- Key-Value stores (the default)

interface keyval_store
	get : ( self, string? ) -> (any) | (nil, string)
	set : ( self, string?, any ) -> (boolean) | (nil, string)
end

-- Map stores (key-key-value stores)

interface map_store
	get : ( self, string?, any ) -> (any) | (nil, string)
	set : ( self, string?, any, any ) -> (boolean) | (nil, string)
	set_keys : ( self, string?, { any : any }) -> (boolean) | (nil, string)
	remove : {}
end

-- Archive stores

typealias archive_query = {
	"start"  : number?, -- timestamp
	"end"    : number?, -- timestamp
	"with"   : string?,
	"after"  : string?, -- archive id
	"before" : string?, -- archive id
	"total"  : boolean?,
}

interface archive_store
	-- Optional set of capabilities
	caps   : {
		-- Optional total count of matching items returned as second return value from :find()
		"total" : boolean?,
	}?

	-- Add to the archive
	append : ( self, string?, string?, any, number?, string? ) -> (string) | (nil, string)

	-- Iterate over archive
	find   : ( self, string?, archive_query? ) -> ( () -> ( string, any, number?, string? ), integer? )

	-- Removal of items. API like find. Optional?
	delete : ( self, string?, archive_query? ) -> (boolean) | (number) | (nil, string)

	-- Array of dates which do have messages (Optional?)
	dates  : ( self, string? ) -> ({ string }) | (nil, string)

	-- Map of counts per "with" field
	summary : ( self, string?, archive_query? ) -> ( { string : integer } ) | (nil, string)

	-- Map-store API
	get    : ( self, string, string ) -> (stanza, number?, string?) | (nil, string)
	set    : ( self, string, string, stanza, number?, string? ) -> (boolean) | (nil, string)
end

-- This represents moduleapi
interface module
	-- If the first string is omitted then the name of the module is used
	-- The second string is one of "keyval" (default), "map" or "archive"
	open_store : (self, string?, string?) -> (keyval_store) | (map_store) | (archive_store) | (nil, string)

	-- Other module methods omitted
