Ichthyostega bad4827b34 Upgrade: Literal can be constexpr
Only minor rearrangements necessary to make that possible with C++20
And while at this change (which requires a full rebuild of Lumiera)

- simplify the defined comparison operators, as C++20 can infer most variations
- also mark various usages of `const char*` either as Literal or CStr

Remark: regarding copyright, up to now this is entirely my work,
        with two major creation steps in 2008 (conception) and
        in 2017 (introduction of a symbol table)

/** @file lifecycle.h
** Installing and invoking of application lifecycle event callbacks.
** This service is a facade for and implemented by the lumiera::LifecycleRegistry.
** By placing a static LifecycleHook variable or by calling LifecycleHook::add,
** a callback can be registered to be executed on a specific application lifecycle
** event. Examples being #ON_BASIC_INIT, #ON_GLOBAL_INIT. Other subsystems may
** register additional events for more specific purpose.
**
** @note the implementation resides in lib/lifecycle.cpp and gets linked into liblumiera.so
** @see lumiera::AppState

* define and register a callback for a specific lifecycle event.
* The purpose of this class is to be defined as a static variable in the implementation
* of some subsystem (i.e. in the cpp file), providing the ctor with the pointer to a
* callback function. Thus the specified callback gets enrolled when the corresponding
* object file is loaded. The event ON_BASIC_INIT is handled specifically, firing off the
* referred callback function as soon as possible. All other labels are just arbitrary (string)
* constants and it is necessary that "someone" cares to fire off the lifecycle events
* at the right place. For example, lumiera-main (and the test runner) calls
* \c LifecycleHook::trigger(ON_GLOBAL_INIT) (and..SHUTDOWN)
* @note duplicate or repeated calls with the same callback are NOP
