``from_param``
! This is a class method (an instance method of the metaclass, to be
! exact) that is used to adapt function parameters. If a
! ``c_int`` type is specified in a function's argtypes sequence,
! ``c_int.from_param(arg)`` will be called by ctypes and the result
! will be passed to the foreign function call as a parameter.
``from_param`` usually returns an internal object that you cannot
! use in Python code - it only makes sense to pass this to foreign
! functions.
On one hand, ``from_param`` is a performance optimization - it
