mpllibs::safe_printf versioning

This section describes how the library is prepared for supporting multiple (not backward compatible) changes.

The elements of the library are defined in the mpllibs::safe_printf::v1 namespace. For example the printf template function is mpllibs::safe_printf::v1::printf and is available after including the <mpllibs/safe_printf/v1/printf.hpp> header file.

At the same time the library provides the <mpllibs/safe_printf/printf.hpp> header file which includes <mpllibs/safe_printf/v1/printf.hpp> and contains the following:

namespace mpllibs
{
  namespace safe_printf
  {
    using v1::printf;
  }
}

This makes it possible to use printf as mpllibs::safe_printf::printf.

Future versions of the library may provide other namespaces (eg. v2). The header files in <mpllibs/safe_printf/...> provide the latest version of the library. To always get version v1, one should use header files in <mpllibs/safe_printf/v1/...>.
