/* GRelation
*
* Indexed Relations. Imagine a really simple table in a
* database. Relations are not ordered. This data type is meant for
* maintaining a N-way mapping.
*
* g_relation_new() creates a relation with FIELDS fields
*
* g_relation_destroy() frees all resources
* g_tuples_destroy() frees the result of g_relation_select()
*
* g_relation_index() indexes relation FIELD with the provided
* equality and hash functions. this must be done before any
* calls to insert are made.
*
* g_relation_insert() inserts a new tuple. you are expected to
* provide the right number of fields.
*
* g_relation_delete() deletes all relations with KEY in FIELD
* g_relation_select() returns ...
* g_relation_count() counts ...
