* removed struct valueDes
* made get_value take void (no arguments), added deprecation note
* removed misleading array size comment for get_units
Also added const to method parameters exactly where called in base with
const arguments.
This means:
* typed method definitions for struct rset
* using REC_TYPE macro in place of dbCommon
* define REC_TYPE as dbCommon unless defined
* in record supports, define REC_TYPE before including epics headers
* fix a few method types in record supports (e.g. void* -> REC_TYPE*)
* fix the type errors gcc finds in dbAccess.c and dbConvert.c
