The equivalent is plain "inline" BUT all file scope declarations of the
inline function in the whole translation unit must use "inline" and not
use "extern" (block scope ones not satisfying this are OK). Thus
int foo();
inline int foo() { ... }
exports foo, as does
inline int foo() { ... }
// Declaration below might be a previously redundant one in user code.
extern int foo();
and this is what means it's not just a straight substitution in headers.
