UFFI is an abstraction layer over all well-known Common Lisp FFI implementations. It may be interessting to add an example using this layer in the FFI section of the CL Cookbook.

UFFI is deprecated in favour of CFFI, so we should use that.

@pnathan I think we can close this.

we take a look at making use of all the great C libraries out there without having to write bindings by hand. We look at cl-autowrap and cffi/c2ffi but also talk a little bit about the groveller too.
