/*
 * This file implements universal function dispatching and promotion (which
 * is necessary to happen before dispatching).
 * This is part of the UFunc object.  Promotion and dispatching uses the
 * following things:
 *
 * - operand_DTypes:  The datatypes as passed in by the user.
 * - signature: The DTypes fixed by the user with `dtype=` or `signature=`.
 * - ufunc._loops: A list of all ArrayMethods and promoters, it contains
 *   tuples `(dtypes, ArrayMethod)` or `(dtypes, promoter)`.
 * - ufunc._dispatch_cache: A cache to store previous promotion and/or
 *   dispatching results.
 * - The actual arrays are used to support the old code paths where necessary.
 *   (this includes any value-based casting/promotion logic)
 *
 * In general, `operand_Dtypes` is always overridden by `signature`.  If a
 * DType is included in the `signature` it must match precisely.
 *
 * The process of dispatching and promotion can be summarized in the following
 * steps:
 *
 * 1. Override any `operand_DTypes` from `signature`.
 * 2. Check if the new `operand_Dtypes` is cached (if it is, got to 4.)
 * 3. Find the best matching "loop".  This is done using multiple dispatching
 *    on all `operand_DTypes` and loop `dtypes`.  A matching loop must be
 *    one whose DTypes are superclasses of the `operand_DTypes` (that are
 *    defined).  The best matching loop must be better than any other matching
 *    loop.  This result is cached.
 * 4. If the found loop is a promoter: We call the promoter. It can modify
 *    the `operand_DTypes` currently.  Then go back to step 2.
 *    (The promoter can call arbitrary code, so it could even add the matching
 *    loop first.)
 * 5. The final `ArrayMethod` is found, its registered `dtypes` is copied
 *    into the `signature` so that it is available to the ufunc loop.

/**
 * Resolves the implementation to use, this uses typical multiple dispatching
 * methods of finding the best matching implementation or resolver.
 * (Based on `isinstance()`, the knowledge that non-abstract DTypes cannot
 * be subclassed is used, however.)
 *
 * NOTE: This currently does not take into account output dtypes which do not
 *       have to match.  The possible extension here is that if an output
 *       is given (and thus an output dtype), but not part of the signature
 *       we could ignore it for matching, but *prefer* a loop that matches
 *       better.
 *       Why is this not done currently?  First, it seems a niche feature that
 *       loops can only be distinguished based on the output dtype.  Second,
 *       there are some nasty theoretical things because:
 *
 *            np.add(f4, f4, out=f8)
 *            np.add(f4, f4, out=f8, dtype=f8)
 *
 *       are different, the first uses the f4 loop, the second the f8 loop.
 *       The problem is, that the current cache only uses the op_dtypes and
 *       both are `(f4, f4, f8)`.  The cache would need to store also which
 *       output was provided by `dtype=`/`signature=`.
 *
 * @param ufunc
 * @param op_dtypes The DTypes that are either passed in (defined by an
 *        operand) or defined by the `signature` as also passed in as
 *        `fixed_DTypes`.
 * @param out_info Returns the tuple describing the best implementation
 *        (consisting of dtypes and ArrayMethod or promoter).
 *        WARNING: Returns a borrowed reference!
 * @returns -1 on error 0 on success.  Note that the output can be NULL on
 *          success if nothing is found.

 * that legacy (value-based promotion) is used when necessary.
 *
 * NOTE: The machinery here currently ignores output arguments unless
 *       they are part of the signature.  This slightly limits unsafe loop
 *       specializations, which is important for the `ensure_reduce_compatible`
 *       fallback mode.
 *       To fix this, the caching mechanism (and dispatching) can be extended.
 *       When/if that happens, the `ensure_reduce_compatible` could be
 *       deprecated (it should never kick in because promotion kick in first).
 *
 * @param ufunc The ufunc object, used mainly for the fallback.
 * @param ops The array operands (used only for the fallback).
 * @param signature As input, the DType signature fixed explicitly by the user.
 *        The signature is *filled* in with the operation signature we end up
 *        using.
 * @param op_dtypes The operand DTypes (without casting) which are specified
 *        either by the `signature` or by an `operand`.
 *        (outputs and the second input can be NULL for reductions).
 *        NOTE: In some cases, the promotion machinery may currently modify
 *        these including clearing the output.
 * @param force_legacy_promotion If set, we have to use the old type resolution
 *        to implement value-based promotion/casting.
 * @param ensure_reduce_compatible Must be set for reductions, in which case
 *        the found implementation is checked for reduce-like compatibility.
 *        If it is *not* compatible and `signature[2] != NULL`, we assume its
 *        output DType is correct (see NOTE above).
 *        If removed, promotion may require information about whether this
 *        is a reduction, so the more likely case is to always keep fixing this
 *        when necessary, but push down the handling so it can be cached.
