Tor Lillqvist d4a953e574 Tell people not to use createScreenCompatibleDeviceUsingBuffer()
I would have liked to kill this whole interface but it turns out that despite
it being not published it is already being used for essential functionality by
3rd parties. Oh well, that is of course exactly what to expect with something
explicitly marked as "experimental".

Contains all of the IDL files except those in [[udkapi]]

i.e. the interfaces that are specific to the LibreOffice application.
An artificial (?) separation.

The reference offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl and
udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.idl (formerly combined into a single
offapi/type_reference/types.rdb) are used to detect inadvertent incompatible
changes.  They are plain-text .idl files (not stricly lexicographically sorted,
though, so they satisfy the .idl file requirements for no forward dependencies),
so in cases where we deliberately /do/ become incompatible they can be modified
manually.

Old such cases of deliberately becoming incompatible are listed in
offapi/type_reference/typelibrary_history.txt, newer such cases are recorded in
the git logs of (now superseded) offapi/type_reference/types.rdb,
offapi/type_reference/offapi.rdb, and udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.rdb, new such
cases are recorded in the git logs of offapi/type_reference/offapi.idl and
udkapi/type_reference/udkapi.idl.
