C# Support

[frodofine]

C# support would be a great addition to Chemfiles! I see that Java support has been somewhat added, so C# can build from this!

I think it would be best to add C# classes corresponding to classes: Trajectory, Frame, Atom, Vector3D, Property, Residue, and Topology. It's fairly simple to add C# binds to a CAPI and the member functions of these classes would just map to these functions.

Sounds like a good plan!

Bindgen code is not really good code, even taking out the fact that parsing C is complicated and produces a weird AST. So if you need any help implementing this, just ask! I'll need to rewrite this at some point =)

On a side note, while there is java code in bindgen, I never finished the bindings code (https://github.com/chemfiles/chemfiles.java), and the java module in bindgen was not updated since 2016 =/ So depending on the way used to declare C function and to call them in C#, the code generating an other language might be a better inspiration.

C# is generally similar to Java, and calling C is pretty easy in that regard!
