* `AST::iter_functions` now returns `ScriptFnMetadata` which includes, among others, _doc-comments_ for functions prefixed by `///` or `/**`.
* A functions lookup cache is added to make function call resolution faster.
* A new feature `metadata` is added that pulls in `serde_json` and enables `Engine::gen_fn_metadata_to_json` which exports the full list of functions metadata (including those inside an `AST`) in JSON format.

Export Functions Metadata to JSON
================================
{{#include ../../links.md}}
`Engine::gen_fn_metadata_to_json`
--------------------------------
As part of a _reflections_ API, `Engine::gen_fn_metadata_to_json` exports the full list
of [functions metadata] in JSON format.
The [`metadata`] feature must be used to turn on this method, which requires
the [`serde_json`](https://crates.io/crates/serde_json) crate.
### Sources
Functions from the following sources are included:
1) Script-defined functions in an [`AST`], if provided
2) Native Rust functions registered into the global namespace via the `Engine::register_XXX` API
3) _Public_ (i.e. non-[`private`]) functions (native Rust or Rhai scripted) in global sub-modules registered via
[`Engine::register_module`]({{rootUrl}}/rust/modules/create.md)
4) Native Rust functions in registered [packages] (optional)
Notice that if a function has been [overloaded][function overloading], only the overriding function's
metadata is included.
JSON Schema
-----------
The JSON schema used to hold functions metadata is very simple, containing a nested structure of
`modules` and a list of `functions`.
### Modules Schema
```json
{
"modules":
{
"sub_module_1":
{
"modules":
{
"sub_sub_module_A":
{
"functions":
[
{ ... function metadata ... },
{ ... function metadata ... },
{ ... function metadata ... },
{ ... function metadata ... },
...
]
},
"sub_sub_module_B":
{
...
}
}
},
"sub_module_2":
{
...
},
...
},
"functions":
[
{ ... function metadata ... },
{ ... function metadata ... },
{ ... function metadata ... },
{ ... function metadata ... },
...
]
}
```
### Function Metadata Schema
```json
{
"namespace": "internal" | "global",
"access": "public" | "private",
"name": "fn_name",
"type": "native" | "script",
"numParams": 42, /* number of parameters */
"params": /* omitted if no parameters */
[
{ "name": "param_1", "type": "type_1" },
{ "name": "param_2" }, /* no type info */
{ "name": "_", "type": "type_3" },
...
],
"returnType": "ret_type", /* omitted if unknown */
"signature": "[private] fn_name(param_1: type_1, param_2, _: type_3) -> ret_type",
"docComments": /* omitted if none */
[
"/// doc-comment line 1",
"/// doc-comment line 2",
"/** doc-comment block */",
...
]
}

Functions Metadata
==================
{{#include ../../links.md}}
The _metadata_ of a [function] means all relevant information related to a function's
definition including:
1. Its callable name
2. Its access mode (public or [private][`private`])
3. Its parameters and types (if any)
4. Its return value and type (if any)
5. Its nature (i.e. native Rust-based or Rhai script-based)
6. Its [namespace][function namespace] (module or global)
7. Its purpose, in the form of [doc-comments]
8. Usage notes, warnings, etc., in the form of [doc-comments]
A function's _signature_ encapsulates the first four pieces of information in a single
concise line of definition:
> `[private] fn_name ( param_1: type_1, param_2: type_2, ... , param_n : type_n ) -> return_type`
