* doc/lispref/Makefile.in (srcs): Add the forgotten records.texi.
* doc/lispref/records.texi (Records): Recommend that record type
names use package-naming conventions.
* etc/NEWS: Add the naming convention recommendation for record
types.
Since copy-sequence seems to be needed anyway for records, have it
work on records, and remove copy-record as being superfluous.
* doc/lispref/records.texi (Records, Record Functions):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct):
* lisp/emacs-lisp/eieio.el (make-instance, clone):
* test/src/alloc-tests.el (record-3):
Use copy-sequence, not copy-record, to copy records.
* doc/lispref/sequences.texi (Sequence Functions)
(Array Functions): Document that aref and copy-sequence
work on records.
* etc/NEWS: Omit copy-record.
* src/alloc.c (Fcopy_record): Remove.
* src/data.c (Faref): Document that arg can be a record.
* src/fns.c (Fcopy_sequence): Copy records, too.
* objects.texi (Record Type): improve description of what
`type-of' returns for records.
(Type Descriptors): new section.
* elisp.texi: reference it.
* records.texi (Records): reference it. Document behaviour when type
slot is a record.
* alloc.c (Fmake_record, Frecord): mention type desciptors.
* doc/lispref/records.texi (Records): Mention size limit.
* etc/NEWS: Mention records.
* src/alloc.c (allocate_pseudovector, allocate_record):
Prefer 'PSEUDOVECTOR_SIZE_MASK' to its definiens.
(allocate_record): Check arg range here, not in callers, as this
simplifies the code. Use allocate_vectorlike instead of
allocate_vector, to avoid duplicate runtime tests.
(Fmake_record, record): Don't mention PSEUDOVECTOR_SIZE_BITS in
the doc string, as it is not visible to the user.
(Fmake_record, record, Fcopy_record):
Prefer make_lisp_ptr to XSETVECTOR.
(record): Broaden memcpy to copy the type, too.

old-struct): New tests.

(cl--generic-struct-specializers): Adjust to new tag.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el (cl-defstruct): When type is nil, use records.
Use the type symbol as the tag. Use copy-record to copy structs.

code to new format.
(cl--struct-register-child): Work with records.

* src/alloc.c (allocate_record): New function.
(Fmake_record, Frecord, Fcopy_record): New functions.
