Translate macros and inline functions to Java

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When the expressions are simple enough to be understood, we should provide 
the macros and inline functions encountered during the parsing so that 
they're available from Java.

Possible implementation approaches : 
- add a "MACROS" / "INLINE" / "_" subclass to generated classes
- add macros and functions as simple methods to the regular top-level 
library interface, but tag them with an annotation that somehow indicates 
where to find the implementation (inner class ?) and let a modified JNA do 
the job of wiring them (slow, partly negates interest of inline).
