[Github-comments] [geany] Scope completion fallout patches (#906)

[Colomban Wendling]

> The trouble is that langType would be defined in both ctags and in the header and we'd have to keep using the LIBCTAGS_DEFINED macro tricks I wanted to eventually eliminate (at the moment still needed for tagEntryInfo). And because using the lang field in the various structs isn't that meaningful and because none of the gp plugins use it (and most plugins don't use the TM stuff at all which I think is the case of external plugins too), I think it's quite safe to assume nobody uses it.

Myeah, as much as I don't like breaking API, I guess it's actually fine.  And we never actually advertized the type, although as we did so for a member of this type it was kinda implicit, but well.  Yet apparently nobody uses this.
So it @elextr and @codebrainz are happy with it, let's break everything and pretend we did not :)
