So I'm proposing to remove the Item type, replace it with void * in
function prototypes, and remove all the casts.
The general idea seems reasonable to me, but I'm a little concerned that
using "void *" could break extensions written in C++ (see commit d5ca15e).
I haven't confirmed there's an actual issue here, though.
Thanks for checking. This is not a problem, because what C++ disallows
is implicit conversion from void * to another pointer type, but it does
allow it the other way around, which is what would be happening here.
I have committed this.
