Description
Support for C++ metadata is mainly for user land modules, not Apple SDKs. This allows defining native, high performance plugins for apps easily that bind to JavaScript in most performant way by directly generating engine-specific/Node-API fallback bindings through Codegen backend.
Codegen backend should support everything: C/C++/Objective-C.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the existing metadata handling and Codegen backend, then determine how user-land C++ modules and engine-specific or Node-API fallback bindings are currently supported. Done means the backend supports C, C++, and Objective-C metadata and AOT-generated bindings as described.
