/* All this wrapping/unwrapping solves a fundamental problem:
 * - The libtgl implementation wants access to the TGLC_* types.
 * - The libtgl implementation should not see any other definitions from any
 *   external crypto library (to make sure no symbol slips "through" during the
 *   OpenSSL-to-gcrypt transition).
 * - Most TGLC_* types (3 out of 4 types) are exclusively used as pointers
 *   throughout the libtgl source, in a way to allow for incomplete types.
 * - The CORE type (e.g. BIGNUM from <openssl/bn.h>) may be incomplete,
 *   even for tglc.
 * This means the standard approaches don't work:
 * - TGLC_NAME can't be a typedef to CORE, since CORE shouldn't even be visible
 *   from libtgl.
 * - TGLC_NAME can't be a pointer to CORE, same reason. Also, it would require
 *   a significant amount of rewriting (error-prone work).
 * - TGLC_NAME can't be a void pointer. Retain type checking!
 * - So TGLC_NAME *must* be an incomplete custom struct.
 * However, this ensues the following ugliness.
 *
 * The standard doesn't explicitly allow it, but there's a pretty good argument
 * that casting ptr-to-some-struct to ptr-to-other-struct is *probably* okay for
 * most compilers: https://stackoverflow.com/a/8702750/3070326
