Writting bindings for libmemcached in Valum

In the past day, I have been working on writting bindings for libmemcached so that I can use it on my project assignment.

I bound the error.h, server.h, server_list.h, storage.h, touch.h and quit.h headers.

It is now possible, from Vala, to do the following operations:

• querying the server about the last error
• add a server from tcp, udp, UNIX socket with an optional weight
• parsing servers list
• store values with operations like set, add, replace, append and prepend
• touch entries to update their expiration timestamp
• quit the memcached server connection
• interacting with an instance

I plan to write the complete binding to dig a little more the language. The hardest part still remain, but it should be done neatly.

• the asynchronous result API with mget and fetch_result
• various callbacks
• SASL and other external dependencies
