Exposes the raw LV2 interface (C) to Rust. Also attempts to implement some idiomatic Rust concepts (e.g. iterators).

        Connect a port on a plugin instance to a memory location.

        Plugin writers should be aware that the host may elect to use the same
        buffer for more than one port and even use the same buffer for both
        input and output (see lv2:inPlaceBroken in lv2.ttl).

        If the plugin has the feature lv2:hardRTCapable then there are various
        things that the plugin MUST NOT do within the connect_port() function;
        see lv2core.ttl for details.

        connect_port() MUST be called at least once for each port before run()
        is called, unless that port is lv2:connectionOptional. The plugin must
        pay careful attention to the block size passed to run() since the block
        allocated may only just be large enough to contain the data, and is not
        guaranteed to remain constant between run() calls.

        connect_port() may be called more than once for a plugin instance to
        allow the host to change the buffers that the plugin is reading or
        writing. These calls may be made before or after activate() or
        deactivate() calls.

        @param instance Plugin instance containing the port.

        @param port Index of the port to connect. The host MUST NOT try to
        connect a port index that is not defined in the plugin's RDF data. If
        it does, the plugin's behaviour is undefined (a crash is likely).

        @param data_location Pointer to data of the type defined by the port
        type in the plugin's RDF data (e.g. an array of float for an
        lv2:AudioPort). This pointer must be stored by the plugin instance and
        used to read/write data when run() is called. Data present at the time
        of the connect_port() call MUST NOT be considered meaningful.

        This is separated from instantiate() to aid real-time support and so

        and then activate(). In this case the plugin instance MUST reset all

        any output ports that represent a single instant in time (e.g. control
        ports, but not audio ports). This is particularly useful for latent
        plugins, which should update their latency output port so hosts can
        pre-roll plugins to compute latency. Plugins MUST NOT crash when
        `sample_count` is 0.

        Deactivation is not similar to pausing since the plugin instance will be
        reinitialised by activate(). However, deactivate() itself MUST NOT fully
        reset plugin state. For example, the host may deactivate a plugin, then
        store its state (using some extension to do so).
