Currently, the logic for exporting symbols is rather complicated: when
tests are enabled internal symbols are exported in addition to the
public symbols. Such logic causes several problems. (1) Test binaries
link against a Ceres build that is different from the final release
since fewer optimizations are applied if more symbols are exported. (2)
Also, some toolchains hide symbols by default breaking the existing
logic eventually causing linker errors.
Since internal symbols are not intended to be used outside of the
project, we can compile them into object files and use exactly the same
binary code both for the final build and the tests without relying on
conditionals.
By default, all symbols are now hidden unless annotated as public.
Internal symbols are explicitly marked as not being exported in case
users chose not to hide symbols by default.

- ensure all public headers files adhere to clang-format
- preserve one-per-line for enums by adding trailing comma
- preserve include order for en/disable_warning.h

Since Ceres is moving to using GitHub for issues, and the Google
Code URL in the current copyright header will soon become invalid,
update all the headers.

1. Typo in c_api.h
2. The stream operator for FunctionSample is now in the ceres::internal namespace.

This extends the C API to support loss functions. Both
user-supplied cost functions as well as the stock Ceres cost
functions (Cauchy, Huber, etc) are supported. In addition, this
adds a simple unit test for the C API.
Supporting loss functions required changing the signature of the
ceres_add_residual_block() function to also take a thunk for the
loss function.

This introduces a simple C API for a subset of Ceres. This opens the door to
using languages like Python to call Ceres, since it is much easier to bind to C
than it is to bind to C++. It will mean giving up the native Ceres autodiff.
The implementation in this patch does not attempt to do everything but is only
just enough to get started. Subsequent patches will increase the surface area
of Ceres that is covered by the C API.
