There is no definition of the struct maple_enode or maple_pnode. This
struct is only used as a pointer. There are some comments about this
pointer, which will be gone if we delete these two typedef statements.

If you worry about generating a not used data type, it may be better to
change `struct maple_enode *foo` to `maple_enode_p foo`. This keeps the
code more readable and used the maple_enode_p type.
